You should already have it from when you installed GTK (or the gtk-devel
package, if you used RPM's, or similar if you used debs) - but you need
to tell gcc where it is, because it isn't in the default include path.
GTK provides a script file called gtk-config which yields the neccessary
-I and -L directives for gcc; there are similar scripts called
glib-config, gdk-pixbuf-config, gnome-config, and *-config for just
about every other GTK derived library.
To use it: Say you have a file called mytest.c, which is to be compiled
to the executable mytest.
At the moment you are probably using:
gcc -o mytest mytest.c
This yields the glibconfig.c error. To fix, use
gcc -o mytest mytest.c `gtk-config --cflags --libs`
Note - these are back quotes around the gtk-config bit. mytest.c should
now compile.
Enjoy,
