Did you install gtk from a distribution package or from source?

If from a distribution package, there might be a package called gtk-dev (vs.
gtk), which
will contain the header files you need. Be sure to install both gtk-dev and
glib-dev

If from source, where were your header files installed? Where is gtk/gtk.h  on
your
system? gcc was not able to find it when compiling conftest.

Please Help,

I am trying to compile ethereal on Solaris 8 x86.  I have all the
latest required packages installed.  When I run ./configure, this is
what I get.

        checking to see if we can add '-Wall' to CFLAGS... yes
checking for platform-specific compiler flags... none needed
checking for LD_LIBRARY_PATH... no -- this may be a problem in a few
seconds
checking for glib-config... /usr/local/bin/glib-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.0... yes
checking for gtk-config... /usr/local/bin/gtk-config
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** Could not run GTK test program, checking why...

    Has anyone seen this before.  My config.log says


       printf("\n*** An old version of GTK+ (%d.%d.%d) was found.\n",
               gtk_major_version, gtk_minor_version, gtk_micro_version);

        printf("*** You need a version of GTK+ newer than %d.%d.%d. The

               major, minor, micro);
        printf("*** GTK+ is always available from
ftp://ftp.gtk.org.\n";);
        printf("***\n");
        printf("*** If you have already installed a sufficiently new

        printf("*** probably means that the wrong copy of the gtk-config

        printf("*** being found. The easiest way to fix this is to

        printf("*** correct copy of gtk-config. (In this case, you will

        printf("*** so that the correct libraries are found at

      }
    }
  return 1;
}

    However when I type in gtk-config --version I get this.

    # gtk-config --version
    1.2.6

    I this not the latest GTK I should be running?

thanks in advance for any insight to this issue.
