I tested the configure option '--enable-gtk=no',
but this is not exactly doing what I had hoped.
The gst-blox and gst-browser are still created as links to gst-load.
I guess that modifying the Makefile.in to not add those to GST_EXTRA_TOOLS,
is a workaround or solution:
Changing
GST_EXTRA_TOOLS = gst-reload gst-sunit gst-blox gst-package gst-convert \
gst-doc gst-remote gst-profile gst-browser
to
GST_EXTRA_TOOLS = gst-reload gst-sunit gst-package gst-convert \
gst-doc gst-remote gst-profile
But I didn't test this, it may create new problems.
Also it's not very nice to modify the Makefile.in.
Basically on systems without GTK-2 GNU Smalltalk can still be very useful,
with its emacs interface and CLI tools, so the GTK-2 additions are nice,
but in my opinion not critical, those components can be "optional" I suppose.
