[Gretl-devel] GUI build failure with older gtk2 version

Hi, I've had a report from a server administrator that building gretl 2016c failed with respect to some GUI components, related to gtksourceview, when using gtk2 (--enable-gtk2). AFAI understand, only recent or even only the latest gtk2 version provides the directory "completion-providers", but gretl or some underlying component assumes it is present. The gtk2 (devel) version on that system apparently is 2.8.2. Here's a verbatim snippet of the error he forwarded me: textbuf.c:51:79: error: gtksourceview/completion-providers/words/gtksourcecompletionwords.h: No such file or directory The CLI usage of that gretl build hopefully isn't affected, but I haven't tested that yet. thanks, sven
