In order to get GIT gtk+ installed on your system, you need to have
23
the most recent GIT versions of glib, pango, and atk installed as well.

Import upstream version 2.10.12
24
The installation process of these libraries is similar to that of gtk+, but
25
needs to be fulfilled prior to installation of gtk+.

If at all possible, please use GIT to get the latest development version of
28
gtk+ and glib. You can do the following to get glib and gtk+ from GIT:
29
30
        $ git clone git://git.gnome.org/glib
31
        $ git clone git://git.gnome.org/pango
32
        $ git clone git://git.gnome.org/atk
33
        $ git clone git://git.gnome.org/gtk+
34
35
Note: if you plan to push changes to back to the master repository and
36
have a gnome account, you want to use the following instead:
37
38
        $ git clone ssh://<username>@git.gnome.org/git/gtk+

To compile the GIT version of gtk+ on your system, you will need to take
1.1.21 by Sebastien Bacher

41
several steps to setup the tree for compilation.  You can do all these
42
steps at once by running:
43
1.1.27 by Sebastien Bacher
Import upstream version 2.12.0
44
        gtk+$ ./autogen.sh

Import upstream version 2.16.1
45
1.1.21 by Sebastien Bacher
Import upstream version 2.10.12
46
Basically this does the following for you:
47

Import upstream version 2.12.0
48
        gtk+$ aclocal; automake; autoconf
49
50
The above commands create the `configure' script.  Now you
1.3.4 by Josselin Mouette
Import upstream version 2.16.1
51
run the `configure' script in `gtk+/' to create all Makefiles.
1.1.27 by Sebastien Bacher
Import upstream version 2.12.0
52
More information about that in `INSTALL'.
53
1.3.4 by Josselin Mouette
Import upstream version 2.16.1
54
Before running `autogen.sh' or `configure', make sure you have libtool
55
in your path.

57
Note that autogen.sh runs configure for you.  If you wish to pass
1.1.27 by Sebastien Bacher

58
options like `--prefix=/usr' to `configure' you can give those options
59
to `autogen.sh' and they will be passed on to `configure'.
