I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 . I am trying to install GKT+3.4.4 on my system.
I get no error when I configure it , implying that it has all the required dependencies.
But when I make it I'm getting some error.

Package: libgtk-3-0
New: yes
State: installed

Description: GTK+ graphical user interface library
GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of
widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites.
I don't think the version should make a difference. You can also get the unstable version: Package: libgtk-3-0 (3.8.2-1 and others)
The command I used was:
Code:
aptitude show libgtk-3-0
I use Debian not Ubuntu but I suppose Ubuntu should have something similar.
jdk
I have already done that .. installing libgtk-3-0 using apt-get for ubuntu.
I think that the problem is because of some path related issues.
I feel that WebKit isn't able to find the right path of gtk.
If you've installed it already then why are you compiling it? I don't understand. Installing package already compiled means you don't have to go through the configure--make--make install procedure. What exactly are you trying to do?
jdk
The reason is that I have been given a project to develop a browser which another team has started.
They told me to use the same version of Webkit they have been using. So I'm trying to build that new one.
For WebKit I need a higher version of GTK.
I'm trying to build WebKit in Ubuntu (12.04 )
I can 'configure' it successfully but when I try to 'make' it ,it's showing some error .

As I said before I don't think the difference between 3.4.4 and 3.4.2-6 will make much difference. Why not try it and see if it works. There is also a 3.8.2-1 version of libgtk-3-0 you could use if the 3.4.2-6 doesn't work. This will save you the trouble of having to compile the library from source which is causing you problems. You probably have the wrong version of some dev packages needed for the compilation.
