Hi Tony, Thank you for all those checks!

Since I didn't think the current output of 'configure -h' caused a confusion, I have little idea as to what caused that. Do you have an suggestion how we could improve that? > - When both GTK2 and GTK3 are present in the system, > ----disable-gtk2-check --enable-gtk3-check builds a Vim with no GUI > Oh, I didn't try those combination. I'd rather like to know why those --(enable|disable)-*-check options were introduced. It looks --enable-gui= is enough... For the sake of completeness of the autodetection mechanism, maybe? > - In the same configuration, just «export > CONF_OPT_GUI='enable-gnome-check'» (without the French quotes) gives a > GTK2 GUI; GTK3 is not looked for. > - When --enable-gui=gtk3 is present, then AFAICT --enable-gnome-check > has no effect. (Maybe I don't have the right packages installed.) > Please note that the GTK3 GUI is completely independent of the Gnome 2 stuff. This is because that stuff has been deprecated since the very early version of Gnome 3 was released and was once said it would soon go away, I intentionally wrote the patch in such a way that the GUI doesn't rely on that. Accordingly, the both cases look fine to me: If --enable-gnome-check is selected, it's natural for us to conclude that the user wants the GTK2 GUI, and if --enable-gui=3 is selected, the user don't want the Gnome stuff. Still, if you find there's room for improvement, please let me know.
