You can try to build spotlighter. It uses AM_PATH_GTK_3_0, while cannot find gtk/gtk.h. > > Emilio -- YunQiang Su -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

The problem is due to changed behavior of pkg-config, most probably occurred in version 0.28. "pkg-config --atleast-version N libA libB" now checks if both libraries are >= N (which will always return false for gtk+-3.0 if the last macro argument is used because the gthread-2.0 version is 2.40.x). Then the test in the AC_TRY_RUN macro is doomed to fail because the no_gtk variable is set to "yes" and as a consequence GTK_CFLAGS/GTK_LIBS/gtk_config_*_version are undefined. Trivial patch attached. I can't reproduce this with pkg-config/0.26-1 on wheezy which makes me think that this is new behavior as of 0.28. I am not sure it was intended though, seems unnatural/incorrect to me. --- gtk+3.0.orig/m4macros/gtk-3.0.m4 +++ gtk+3.0/m4macros/gtk-3.0.m4 @@ -48,7 +48,7 @@ enable_gtktest=no fi -if $PKG_CONFIG --atleast-version $min_gtk_version $pkg_config_args; then +if $PKG_CONFIG --atleast-version $min_gtk_version gtk+-3.0; then : else no_gtk=yes
