Robert,

Thanks for your help. I had run ldconfig as on of my steps (and GTK is
installed from RPM in any case).

Defining LD_LIBRARY_PATH has no effect - I get the same error message.
grepping the source tree shows "-L/opt/gnome/lib64 -lgtk" (without
version number) in several places, so I assume it's properly included.

I'll check again into the configure options, although, as the rpmbuild
threw up the same error, I wonder if it's more likely to be a problem
with what GTK RPMs or RPM versions may be installed?

Regards,

Des
