     Hello, again.  I'm trying to compile the CVS repository code and have

     configure:
      
     ./configure: line 13333: syntax error near unexpected token `GTK,'
     ./configure: line 13333: `  PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK, gtk+-2.0 >= 2.6.0)'
      
      
     The offending region in the configure script is:
     
     if test x"$with_gui" != x"no" ; then
      PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK, gtk+-2.0 >= 2.6.0)
      PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GLADE, libglade-2.0)
     fi
     
      
     Any ideas?  I'm using cygwin, in case that information helps.

This suggests that you don't have the pkg.m4 module.  However, if
you're not interested in building the GUI, then you can run configure
using "./configure --without-gui" and it should work just fine.

I've never yet successfully built the GUI under Cygwin.  I think there
are some subtleties of the linker which Cygwin hasn't got right.  But
the command line interface should be OK.
