Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Issue with building wireshark from source

Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2011 19:59:14 -0500
I have installed all the dependent packages - gtk3.1 , glib, pango atk and all the required packages.
Now when I run ./configure in wireshark build I get the following error:

checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.4.0... no
*** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: GTK+ 2.4 or later isn't available, so Wireshark can't be compiled

I have the latest version of GTK+ installed. Could some one please tell me what the issue is here?

 When i searched for solution many were suggesting gtk-dev package.
I am using 64bit ubuntu and I could not find a suitable GTK devel package. 

Can some one tell me where i can find the package?

Thanks
Vijay
