gtkdialog install error

I'm getting an error during make when I try to install gtkdialog in ubuntu. I tried the reinstalling texinfo fix and it still didn't work

Hi @alec-bertoy - this looks almost like the make file isn't finding all the necessary libraries - does brew install gtk+ result in a successful install of the gtk+ dependency?

Hi @privatezero thanks for the reply! I've installed gtk but I did a successful reinstall and the same error still happens

Hmm - if gtk is present then it might be possible brew isn't finding it for some reason. If you try dumping the output of the build command (through something like brew install --verbose gtkdialog > ~/Desktop/build-log.txt) can you tell if the process is finding the correct location of gtk+ and/or if there are any other spots where it is alerting to errors?
