Install the gtk2.2[whatever]-devel package. All should be well after that.

I'm still trying to install GIMP 2.0 on Mandrake 9.2.

Making no headway at all. Have made a summary of what I've been doing. If
anyone could shed light on this I would be VERY grateful. I have been doing
the below after reading the INSTALL documents that accompanies the GIMP2
source code download.

1) atk 1.2.4 configures, makes and installs okay. 2) pango 1.2.5 - configures, makes and installs okay.
3) glib 2.2.3 configures, makes and installs okay.

4)When ./configure is run for gtk+2.2.2 I get this error message at the end:

checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.1.4 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.0.1... Package atk was
not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `atk.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'atk' found

configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.1.4 atk >= 1.0.1 pango

= 1.0.1) not met; consider adjusting the

PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment
variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find
them.

Of course GIMP 2.0 won't build without gtk. So what do I do?

Many thanks in advance

I too have been attempting this compile under ML9.2 without success. The first significant "not found" in config.log is:

configure:30573: WARNING: libexif not found! EXIF support will not be built into the JPEG plug-in. libexif is available from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/libexif

Oddly enough when I attempt to install libexif, it is found:

[root@kylesbox khamar]# urpmi libexif medium "contrib" uses an invalid list file: mirror is probably not up-to-date, trying to use alternate method Everything already installed
[root@kylesbox khamar]#

The "invalid list file" message is a known bug that is usually just ignored.

So if everything is already installed why is libexif not found?

I have carefully installed everything listed as required at gimp.org but have not overcome the errors in configure. BTW, ./configure completes normall and does not "shell out" with excessive errors. Any attempt to "make" however results in failure.

Config.log has more errors as well. Here is the next one:

configure:30626: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall conftest.c -laa >&5 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -laa
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:30632: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h. */
...

do you have a /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libexif.pc or is it in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libexif.pc

If the latter, the quick and dirty answer is to copy it to /usr/lib/pkgconfig/

If you havent already done so, as root, run 'ldconfig' and see what happens. (I could be totally wrong here)

The more correct way is to do:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/

Sincerely, Brix

So if everything is already installed why is libexif not found?

Install libexif9-devel and then libjpeg62-devel and again until you are OK with the configuration (read carrefully to be sure to have every plugin built).
On MDK9.2 you don't need Contrib or external download or lib compilations, everything is on the 3 GPL cd's, even for python support ( ./configure --enable-python ), but you need to install lot of -devel RPM's not installed by default.
