The gui client is not realy optional about dopewars

The error you're seeing is for GLib, not GTK. GLib is
required to build any part of dopewars. See
http://dopewars.sourceforge.net/faq.html\#glib

GLib is not a graphics library, but a general purpose string
handling etc. library.

So there are actualy 2 problems:
- as you can see from my original message I used
--disable-gtktest so the gtk errors should not be displayed
at all.
- I have glib-2.8.4 installed, and there is no mention on
the dopewars pages that only version 1 of glib works. And
since it can use gtk2 I assumed glib2 will also work.

--disable-gtktest is a generic GTK macro, not a dopewars
macro, so you can't really blame me for that. ;)

dopewars will work with either glib1 or glib2. But it looks
like the configure logic is getting a little confused in
your case, and trying to probe for glib1 rather than glib2.

The simple solution is to use the CVS version instead, where
I have removed support for version 1 of glib and gtk (they
required lots of special case code to support, and the
version 2 libraries have been out for a long time now), so
you won't run into this problem, provided that you have the
glib2-dev package (or similar) installed.
