It is installed when gtk is installed To compile a gtk program you would use gcc `gtk-config --cflags` program.c `gtk-config --libs` On the system I am using at the moment I get humulus:~% gtk-config --libs -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11/lib -R/usr/X11/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lglib -lXext -lX11 -lsocket -lnsl -lm and humulus:~% gtk-config --cflags -I/usr/local/lib/glib/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11/include Gtk-config is part of the gtk+ distribution, see <URL:http://www.gtk.org/>.
