I downloaded the source code of gtk+-2.10.3 and tried to compile, it stopped asking for the development package of libtiff4.
The error log is : configure: WARNING: *** TIFF loader will not be built (TIFF library not found) *** configure: error: *** Checks for TIFF loader failed. You can build without it by passing *** --without-libtiff to configure but some programs using GTK+ may *** not work properly I understand that it's an optional package, but maybe it should be included in the dependencies for the development package of gtk. -- libgtk2.0-0-dev needs libtiff4-dev https://launchpad.net/bugs/61853 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
