Hi,
Why don't you install python-gtk instead of trying to build it? You use
Ubuntu, not Arch.

Hello,
some days ago, although I am fairly satisfied with my current XMPP
client, Pidgin, I decided to try Gajim. It seems to be more close to
use all the features that XMPP can offer.
There is something a bit unusual - although not a problem, just for
what it is. The machine I use most is old, and has Ubuntu 10.04 in it.
It runs fine, with all the programs I need and like and with a good
performance. Great.
I am not too familiar with building processes, although I have done
several of them (since and along years ago).
My current problem is that Gajim complains that it needs PyGTK 2.22+
to run. But I have PyGTK 2.24.0 installed!
The full story of my process of getting the Gajim source, installing
and/or compiling and installing dependencies is detailed in a
LinuxQuestions' thread. I will give you the thread address, but I will
also summarize the important parts (for this discussion) right after:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/installing-needed-dependencies-for-gajim-0-16-7-from-source-in-ubuntu-10-04-a-4175606609
1. Downloaded Gajim 0.16.7 tarball:
https://gajim.org/downloads.php?lang=en#source
2. Discovered dependency: installed python-nbxmpp (
https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/python-nbxmpp/ ) from source. A few more
packages were installed through Synaptic (details in post #1).
3. To install PyGTK 2.24.0 (
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pygtk/2.24/ ), pygobject >=
2.21.3 was needed, tar.bz of 2.21.3 here:
https://launchpad.net/pygobject/+milestone/2.21.3
4. PyGTK reported, before building:
==
The following modules will be built:
atk
pango
The following modules will NOT be built:
pangocairo
gtk
gtk.glade
gtk.unixprint
Numpy support: no
==
4.1. What should I do to build those in the "NOT" section? Are they
used by Gajim?
4.2. PyGTK installer reported (full report on thread page 2, post #21):
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gtk-2.0
5. PyGTK 2.24.0 is installed. Gajim still does not work, saying that
it needs PyGTK 2.22+. What to do?
6. Someone said that "Gajim requires: pycrypto, pyOpenSSL,
python-nbxmpp". I have not found this written in any Gajim file I
downloaded. Does my build of Gajim includes support for security
features?
I will be waiting for comments or (in the best possibility) the
solution for my problem,
Dedeco
