gnome-config: not found is a big hint.



Indeed

Thanks for the pointer. I read this thread but am not quite sure what the solution is. I ran the command:

host$ cygcheck -c gtk2-x11

Presumably, that verifies that I do have the necessary package
installed.  In fact, my system returns:

  Cygwin Package Information
  Package              Version        Status
  gtk2-x11             2.4.11-1       OK

So I have GTK 2.0 package installed.  The OP goes on to ask how to
correctly set his pkg-config path, the response being:

  $ echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
  /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig

I thought /usr/lib/pkgconfig is our default $PKG_CONFIG_PATH path. At least gtk and gnome put their stuff in there.

$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig

/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig only carry a view X libs. -- Reini Urban http://xarch.tu-graz.ac.at/home/rurban/
