Description The Written Word 2003-04-11 05:21:12 UTC 
I've read through the mail archives covering the X11R6-requirement for GTK+
2.2.1 and possible fixes to get it to build under X11R5:
  http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2002-August/msg00012.html

What's the chance of an option to the build machinery to disable XIM to
allow building under X11R5?

If you provide enough details for a non-X person, I might take a crack at this.

See:

 http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2002-August/msg00012.html

Which sketches out what would need to be done, and then
goes on to say:

 On the other hand, X11R6 was released on May 2, 1994, over 8
 years ago, and 2 years before development of GTK+ started...

[ Over 9 years ago now :-) ]

Oops, forgot the patch to gdk/x11/gdkdisplay-x11.c. Next patch will
fix this.

I've committed what should be a fix, testing appreciated.

        * configure.in gdk/x11/gdkdisplay-x11.c modules/input/Makefile.am:
        Check for XAddConnectionWatch()/X11R6, and if found, disable
XIM and
        use of XAddConnectionWatch. Remove --enable-xim config option.
        Should fix building on X11R6 (#110523, Albert Chin)
