[GNC-dev] Build fail on Linux Mint 19.2

Hi John,

I am getting a cmake configuration fail while trying to build v3.7 from the
tarball on Linux Mint 19.2. I have cmake  3.13.4 installed. I've listed the
glib swig and guile  and gdk packages installed after the cmake output below
and attached the cmake output log and error log from the build directory.  

The cmake error log seems to indicate a problem finding <gdk/gdk.h>.  As far
as I can see the dependencies are OK.  
$ locate gdk.h
/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdk.h
/usr/include/gtk-3.0/gdk/gdk.h

It may be a Linux Mint 19.2 related as I get the same errors building v3.6
again from scratch. I can't remember having to rebuild it when I upgraded
from Mint 19.1 to 19.2 a few weeks ago.
