Re: gtk application compile error

[Jon Wilson <sendmemymail bigfoot com>]

Obviously the compiler is having problems finding your development 
libraries. There may well be something wrong with your devel package, 
but you should be able to work round it. Run "gtk-config --cflags" and 
it should give a list of directories preceeded by a "-I" look in each of 
these and check that they first exist and that secondly one of them 
includes a folder "gtk" with a file "gtk.h" in it. The error is not due 
to you missing the include in your source, but because the compiler 
cannot find the required header. If you manage to find the header you 
can always add it manually to the arguments to the compiler with 
"-I/path/to/header" remember that the header must then be at 
"/path/to/header/gtk/gtk.h" hope this is of some help.
