BitchX Gtk problem


Hi all

I am trying to install BitchX irc on my box, doing:

./configure --with-plugins --with-gtk

I get error:

checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** Could not run GTK test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK was incorrectly installed
*** or that you have moved GTK since it was installed. In the latter case, you
*** may want to edit the gtk-config script: /usr/bin/gtk-config
configure: error: { { echo "configure:7394: error: cannot fing GTK" >&5
echo "configure: error: cannot fing GTK" >&2;}
{ (exit 1); exit 1; }; }

How would I troubleshoot this?

Well first start by echecking your Gtk version and where its located at, bitchx's default ./configure script might not be looking in the correct place.
