Prerequisites
=============
GTK requires the following packages:
- Autotools or Meson
- The GLib, Pango, GdkPixbuf, ATK and cairo libraries, available at
the same location as GTK.
- libepoxy, for cross-platform OpenGL support.
It can be found here: https://github.com/anholt/libepoxy
- Each GDK backend has its own backend-specific requirements. For
the X11 backend, X11 R6 and XInput version 2 (as well as a number
of other extensions) are required. The Wayland backend requires
(obviously) the Wayland libraries.
- gobject-introspection
Simple install procedure for Meson
==================================
$ tar xf gtk+-3.24.46.tar.xz # unpack the sources
$ cd gtk+-3.24.46 # change to the toplevel directory
$ meson setup _build # configure GTK+
$ meson compile -C _build # build GTK+
[ Become root if necessary ]
# meson install -C _build # install GTK+
