First thing. Have you got a file gtk+-2.0.pc in /usr/lib/pkgconfig? If
not, any ideas why not? If a similar file, what's that called?

configure.in is using pkgconfig to see what libraries you have on your
system, and that's the library it's looking for. If it can't find it,
that's why it's moaning that gtk isn't present.

Let me know more, and I'll dig deeper (I'm trying to get the Qt version
of this test working correctly :-)
