Well, I don't know exactly how I did it, but this error is
solved. Now I have a similar problem with file gtk.h
I may find gtk.h in /usr/include/gtk-1.2/gtk/
but in running "make" I have the error
"excel_import.c:24:21: error: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory"
There are two main sets of Gtk and Glib libraries in circulation.
One set has is labeled "1.2". It is very old, in fact it is
effectively obsolete. Gretl can't use glib-1.2, nor can it use
gtk-1.2. You need "2.0" versions of both libraries for gretl.
The magic to see if the "developer" packages for these are on your
system is
pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0
pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0
If the second command doesn't turn anything up, it will be
necessary to install the gtk 2.0 "dev" package.
Anyone want to do a "CVS gretl on Ubuntu HOWTO"? I recently got a
new PC at home, installed Ubuntu, and built CVS gretl (of
course!). So I know it can be done OK. But unfortunately I was
too impatient to make a detailed note of all the packages I had to
install first.
