Thanks for clearing it up. I'm not too experienced with GNOME utils. And I see that the .pc files are quite useful. I was used to the *old* way where you specified non-standard library paths as parameters to the configure script. Anyway, for the record here's what I did: 1. edit /etc/ld.conf - added /usr/local/lib - This is where GTK+2 was installed (by default). 2. set the env variables. The GTK+ 2 package config file gtk+-2.0.pc gets installed (by default) to /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig. So for this configure script to find it set: PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/; export PKG_CONFIG_PATH Similary, the GTK+ 2 libraries are installed in /usr/local/lib, so set: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH FYI - I tried editing /etc/ld.conf (adding /usr/local/lib) and then running /sbin/ldconfig and this didn't work. I then reran ./configure for gimp 2.0.6 and it worked. Thanks!
