Can not find the gdk-pixbuf library or version is lower than required

One more, maybe last in the nasty complaining list for building GTK+-2.22.1, prerequisite for GTK+, which might be complaining the lower version than required or simply loss of it:

 1. yum -y reinstall gdk-pixbuf-devel.x86_64 gdk-pixbuf.x86_64
oops, no luck this time, ./configure of GTK still grouses there for missing it (on some platforms, this reintallation could only get the 0.22.0 version, for instance)

( if it wors ok now for you, stop here and congrutulations to you!)

2. download and built on source package

But gdk-pixelbuf-2.0 can NOT be found,  how repulsively this costly trivial steps end like this!


Finally, it is a conclusion:  you should build gtk-2.4, where gdk-pixbuf-2.0 will be included inside!!


bewildered definitely, what else could we do but to follow it ?!

Open another post for the GTK+ installation/upgrading in :
