22279	fontforge now needs gtkmm-3 when building the GUI	Joe Locash	Douglas R. Reno	"In fontforge-20251009 gtkmm-3 is now needed if GTK-3 is installed and it builds the GUI:

{{{
-- Checking for module 'gtk+-3.0'
--   Found gtk+-3.0, version 3.24.51
-- Checking for module 'gtkmm-3.0'
--   Package 'gtkmm-3.0' not found
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-4.1/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:639 (message):
  The following required packages were not found:

   - gtkmm-3.0
}}}



This is new in CMakeLists.txt for it:


{{{
if(ENABLE_GUI)
  find_package(GDK3 3.10 REQUIRED)
  find_package(PkgConfig)
  pkg_check_modules(GTK3 REQUIRED IMPORTED_TARGET gtk+-3.0)
  pkg_check_modules(GTKMM REQUIRED IMPORTED_TARGET  gtkmm-3.0)

}}}




Since GTK-3 is recommended for fontforge, gtkmm-3 should be also.
