gdkconfig.h is missing

If you are going to compile some stuff in BT3 it might happen to you that you receive the errormessage that gdkconfig.h is missing.

If so, open a shell and type in:

Code:

ln -s /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include/gdkconfig.h /usr/include

Restart the make and the problem should be solved.

Thanks for the input. I have already done that but the issue had not come up so I didn't consider posting it.

Seems that not many are compiling GTK applications from source.
