      Upstream standard now is to link this package against <application>GTK+
      3</application>. However, for backward compatibility, manu users need
      also another instance, linked to  <application>GTK+ 2</application>. Both
      can be installed in the same system, without problem.  However, some
      packages can alternatively be linked to either one. Here, both build
      methods are presented and recommended to be built, but if you know which
      one you need, just jump to the respective part.

      When installing, the Makefile does some additional compiling and linking.
      If you do not have Xorg in /usr, the LIBRARY_PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH
      variables need to be defined for the root user.  If using sudo to assume
      root, use the -E option to pass your current environment variables for the
