Your questions led directly to the problem. Apparently the swap partion that
was in use was not valid.
Summary of the problem and solution follows:
1. cat/proc/swaps indicated an empty file.
2.Edited /fetc/fstab to change the swap partition to a disk that was known to
have a valid swap partition and rebooted.
3.cat/proc/swaps displayed:
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/hdb3 partition 1025632 588 1
4. ' make install' ( gtk+-2.8.20) was executed sucessfully
Thank you for you expedient and professional response.
