Is it just a matter of "sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0" and having some extra libraries sitting around? GTK doesn't have to do anything, just be there for bitcoin to link to when it loads up, have the gtk-init-check call fail because no GUI present, then it's done. <br/><br/>It saves us butchering everything with ifdefs and a separate compile and binary to use wxBase just to try to avoid linking GTK.<br/></div></div> text/html
