What exactly are headers? Is it possible I don't have the proper ones? This is the 3rd lib I have had to install in order to get Nicotine (a pysoulseek type app) installed and should be the last

#1 was gtk+-2.2.3 and took me down 15 different roads to get it installed, #2 went easy, and here we are again!
