So what does the "checking for GTK+" line say if you run the configure script with --without-qt?

It's checking for GTK+ 3 there; *IF* --without-qt causes it to search for GTK+ 2, and you have the GTK+ 3 developer stuff but not the GTK+ 2 deverloper stuff, that could be causing the problem, but we'd need to see the "checking for GTK+" line for "./configure --without-qt" in order to see whether that's what it's doing.
