[MPlayer-users] Re:MPlayer won't compile on LindowsOS for lack of GTK

[Michael Katsevman]

Well, I checked more into it, and it seems it all stems from one simple 
problem:
I'm missing the xlibs-dev package. However, LindowsOS has their own 
version of the xlibs package, so the dependencies of xlibs-dev aren't 
met! I have found they give you their version of xlibs-dev on 
Click-n-Run (a proprietry service where you get on-demand software). 
Click-n-Run was not included with the OS, and I don't really feel like 
shelling out $99 for the account. So I'm kinda stuck. I definetely know 
other GTK programs work (For example, I have this simple billiards game 
called gtkBilliards and it works just fine) and xmms also reportedly is 
gtk based. Nevertheless, the MPlayer ./configure still refuses to 
recognize GTK's existence...

Any help, again, would be greatly appreciated...
