RE: problems compiling gtk3

[John Lumby <johnlumby hotmail com>]

I just recently built gtk3 from source myself    (and did not hit your problem).

I'd say it's most likely that your PKG_CONFIG_PATH is unset
and therefore inconsistent with where you've installed your packages (/usr/local)

So you would need to re-build,   but first
  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig"


You can diagnose it with ldd -v of your libgio-2.0.so  -
Here's output of mine (my prefix is /usr/gtk3) -
see how the reference is resolved to a libglib under the same place /usr/gtk3
That's what you should be looking for except your place is /usr/local

/root:0 nm /usr/gtk3/lib/libgio-2.0.so | fgrep -e  g_source_get_time
         U g_source_get_time
/root:0 ldd -v /usr/gtk3/lib/libgio-2.0.so | fgrep glib
        libglib-2.0.so.0 => /usr/gtk3/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0xb7525000)
        /usr/gtk3/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0:
/root:0 nm /usr/gtk3/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 | fgrep -e  g_source_get_time
0003d8e0 T g_source_get_time
/root:0
