In the case that the latter yum command is > wrong, someone on the list will hopefully correct me There is no "gtk" package; it's called "gtk+" (for version 1), or "gtk2" (for version 2, the current version). GTK is the toolkit that the Gnome environment is built around. It's also almost certainly already installed on just about every Fedora box in the world that hasn't been done with a "minimal" or cut-down server install. If you're trying to build software, what you'll be missing is the "development" files, required for software development. Depending on whether the project you are building requires version 1 or version 2 of the GTK toolkit, you'll be needing to do either: # yum install gtk+-devel or # yum install gtk2-devel Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
