  14   or you might have to compile your own GTK2 library.

  29 To compile the source tree from a tarball, simply follow these steps :
  30
  31 - ./configure
  32 - make
  33 - make install
  34

  57 * For Developers
  58
  59 This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
  60 portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
  61 compile the git repository tree :
  62
  63
  64 - GNU autotools (automake >=1.7, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50)
  65   (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!)
  66 - GNU Libtool
  67   (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
  68
  69 If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh
  70 script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration.
