gtk?
hey everyone,
I have a question about installing software on mandrake (why'd they change it? I like mandrake better!). I'm trying to install edonkey2000 gui on my box and when i try to do ./configure this is what happens:

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gtk+-2.0' found
configure: error: pkg-config could not find gtk+-2.x >= 2.0.2. Do you have the gtk+-2.x development packages installed? You need the gtk2 and the gtk2-devel packages (libgtk+-2.0-0 and libgtk+-2.0-dev on debian).
This also happens on my other mandrake box aswell. How do I fix it?
Thanks,

As root, type into a terminal urpmi gtk. And gtk should be installed via the ftp sources, you might want to configure the urpmi sources, so check out this site and follow its instructions before installing gtk or any software via urpmi. http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/

ok I tried #urpmi gtk and I get this:
[nikosapi@localhost nikosapi]$ su
[root@localhost nikosapi]# urpmi gtk
The following packages contain gtk:
gtk+2.0
gtk+licq
gtk-engines
gtk-engines2
gtk-themes
gtkam
gtkdialogs
gtkeyboard
gtkhtml-3.1
gtksourceview
gtktalog
libexif-gtk4
libgtk+-x11-2.0_0
libgtk+1.2
libgtk+2.0_0
libgtkglarea5
libgtkhtml-3.1_11
libgtkhtml1.1_3
libgtkhtml2_0
libgtkmm1.2
libgtksourceview-1.0_0
libgtkspell0
libwxgtk2.5_1
pygtk2.0
pygtk2.0-libglade
pygtk2.0-wrapper
python-gtk
Then I type: #urpmi gtk+2.0 and it says:
[root@localhost nikosapi]# urpmi gtk+2.0
Everything already installed
I'm pretty sure that I have installed gtk but it just isn't showing up in the "PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable" as it says when I type ./configure. Where is the " PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable" located and what do I have to add to it exactly.
thanks,
-->Nikosapi

It says you need Gtk+ 2.0.2, while the URPMI is returning 2.0.
Try and find a Mandrake RPM of 2.0.2 somewhere on the Internet, and manually install it with "rpm-i".DISTRO=Arch

I'm looking for gtk+2.0. Does anyone know where I can find it? I'm running mandrake 10.1 mini.
