[Geany-devel] Getting error "./configure: line 15682: syntax error near unexpected token `GTK, '" from running autogen.sh

[Peter Lee]

Hello fellows,

After I run autogen.sh(SVN rev5114), it generates some messages, and
failed at error:
"
...
./configure: line 15682: syntax error near unexpected token `GTK,'
./configure: line 15682: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK, $gtk_modules)'
"

The whole sequence of messages are at the end of this email.

Any helpful info would be appreciated.

Regards

P

Copying file po/Makefile.in.in

Please add the files
  codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4
  progtest.m4
from the /aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file.
You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.
