Well, to know the version of a program you have installed you should issue:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ pkg-config --modversion xft
2.1.8

Hi Alocci,
Great information. Thanks. What I found was that it knew Xft was there but it didn't know Xrender was there. When I built Xorg I must have done something stupid because when I did the install none of the libs got installed. I had to install them all manually and put the *.pc files in the pkgconfig directory. I must have missed the Xrender.pc. I copied it over and that gave me the expected output from "pkg-config --modversion xft". I tried the gtk+ configure script again and got other errors which I fear are indicators that I have other things missing from my system that are supposed to be there at this point. I really don't want to start from the beginning again so all I can do at this point is keep on muddling through fixing the things I find along the way. At some point I should have everything I need in place and things should start working correctly. I think I should probably take a few minutes to go through the pkg-config documentation and see what else I can use to find the reasons for the errors I'm finding. :-) Thanks again.

Arnie
