I guess some sutleties where lost in translation: I am fully aware that Alex 
advise was appropriate and information regarding gtk+2 are correct. sorry if it 
wasn't clear I am grateful for the help provided.

here are some reasons for me to doubt this, as a strict requirement for my 
package:

- not listed in dependencies on mother website (where upstream package is 
fetched from)
- no mention whatsoever in the install file or any other doc that comes with 
the source
- missing pango-dev yields non verbose check 'GTK+2 >= 2.4.0 - no' when it is 
obviously wrong
- the output of pkg-config that still bothers me

in fact looking deeper I know now that it is a dependency of pango and not 
pango-dev itself that is the issue so while adding it to the dep strings may do 
the trick it is hardly satisfying... I might as well list all packages under 
the fink tree just in case an unlisted dependency lies under a rock.

Best Regards,
Rogue
