Hello. I try to install vim7.0 But I can't install vim with GUI. It seems that configure automatically looks for a GUI, but it always tells no in my system. "checking --enable-gui argument... no GUI support" And I'm sure there isn't gvim in my system. I read src/INSTALL. It tells me that I need glib and gtk+ at least version 1.1.16, but below 2.0. I use Debian, and in my system, there are libgtk1.2, libgtk1.2-common, libgtk1.2-dev, libglib1.2, libglib1.2-dev. So what else do I need?
That INSTALL file must be really old, it says that GTK2 doesn't work -- it has worked since at least at some patchlevel of 6.3.
Check the output of configure, where it checks for the various flavours of GUI (there is a long list of lines starting "checking"). Apparently it cannot find your GTK libs. you may need some argument to tell it where they are found; or else maybe you have --disable-gui-gtk-check or something?
Best regards, Tony.
