Hi, Whenever I try to install programs from source I get the following error: "configure: error: Cannot find GTK: Is gtk-config in path?" What the terminal says is pasted below, yet as I am new I have no idea what most of this means. Does anyone have any ideas what I need to do? samuel@gamesgalore:~/Desktop/simplecdrx-1.3.3$ ./configure checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes /home/samuel/Desktop/simplecdrx-1.3.3/missing: Unknown `--run' option Try `/home/samuel/Desktop/simplecdrx-1.3.3/missing --help' for more information configure: WARNING: `missing' script is too old or missing checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for style of include used by make...

You have to install libgtk-dev from Synaptic. There are also errors about libogg and libvorbis missing; install libogg-dev and libvorbis-dev. Most of the time you get errors about missing libraries, you don't have the dev-files installed. Good luck
Thanks for the quick reply, but the closest match to 'libgtk-dev' is 'libgtk2.0-dev' in my Synaptic. I have all repositories enabled, but if I try to install 'libgtk2.0-dev' i get errors saying 'Depends: libglib2.0-dev (>=2.7.1) but it is not installable Depends: libpango1.0-dev (>=1.10.0-2) but it is not installable Depends: libatk1.0-dev (>=1.6.1-2) but it is not installable Depends: libcairo2-dev but it is not going to be installed Depends: libx11-dev but it is not installable or xlibs-dev but it is not going to be installed Depends: libxext-dev but it is not installable or xlibs-dev but it is not going to be installed Depends: libxinerama-dev but it is not installable Depends: libxi-dev but it is not installable Depends: libxrandr-dev but it is not installable Depends: libxcursor-dev but it is not installable Depends: libxfixes-dev but it is not installable' Also 'libogg-dev' and 'libvorbis-dev' aren't listed. Any help would be great. Thanks guys.
