I don't know what is needed exactly, here is the list of dev packages I have: Code: {{{ autotools-dev comerr-dev dpkg-dev libart-2.0-dev libatk1.0-dev libaudiofile-dev libavahi-client-dev libavahi-common-dev libavahi-glib-dev libbonobo2-dev libbonoboui2-dev libc6-dev libcairo-directfb2-dev libcairo2-dev libcupsys2-dev libdbus-1-dev libdirectfb-dev libesd0-dev libexpat1-dev libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libgail-dev libgconf2-dev libgcrypt11-dev libgdk-pixbuf-dev libglade2-dev libglib1.2-dev libglib2.0-dev libgnome-keyring-dev libgnome2-dev libgnomecanvas2-dev libgnomeui-dev libgnomevfs2-dev libgnutls-dev libgpg-error-dev libgtk1.2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libhal-dev libhal-storage-dev libice-dev libidl-dev libjpeg62-dev libkrb5-dev liblzo2-dev libopencdk8-dev liborbit2-dev libpanel-applet2-dev libpango1.0-dev libpng12-dev libpopt-dev libselinux1-dev libsepol1-dev libsm-dev libstartup-notification0-dev libstdc++6-4.1-dev libsysfs-dev libtasn1-3-dev libtiff4-dev libusplash-dev libwnck-dev libx11-dev libxau-dev libxcomposite-dev libxcursor-dev libxdamage-dev libxdmcp-dev libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxft-dev libxi-dev libxinerama-dev libxkbfile-dev libxml2-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libxres-dev libxt-dev linux-libc-dev x11proto-composite-dev x11proto-core-dev x11proto-damage-dev x11proto-fixes-dev x11proto-input-dev x11proto-kb-dev x11proto-randr-dev x11proto-render-dev x11proto-resource-dev x11proto-xext-dev x11proto-xinerama-dev xtrans-dev xutils-dev zlib1g-dev }}} you can install them before patching gtk+ by typing Code: {{{ sudo apt-get install ...packages from the list above... }}} Then we're starting the patching itself. -Download this file (note: you must be a member of ubuntuforums.org to be able to download it) http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=47782&d=1193338357 -Open a terminal, go to the directory where you've downloaded the file using cd and execute the following command lines.

Please report in the forum thread any problems you might have encountered. ---- [[Anchor(second)]] '''''Second method :''''' Install the mac menu applet deb package (note: you must be a member of ubuntuforums.org to be able to download it: http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=47899&d=1193414016) , then in a terminal, type in this to install apt-build Code: {{{ sudo apt-get install apt-build }}} Choose to add apt-build repository to your sources.list when asked. After, I told apt-build to get libgtk2.0-0 source package (apt-build takes care of the build deps for you, ie: -dev packages) You need to have the Ubuntu sources repositories enabled (menu System > Administration > Software sources, then pick Ubuntu software tab and check Source Code box). Code: {{{ sudo apt-build source libgtk2.0-0 }}} Next step was to copy the downloaded patch [#two 2] from where is was (on the desktop in _this_ case, replace "~/Desktop/" with the path where you downloaded the gzipped patch) to the libgtk2.0-0 source package directory If you also want to remove the underlines use the patch 098_no_label_underline.patch [#three 3] First, uncompress 099_mac_menubar.patch.gz : Code: {{{ gzip -d ~/Desktop/099_mac_menubar.patch.gz }}} then copy the patches to the patches directory (assuming they are on your Desktop, if it's not the case replace ~/Desktop/ with the path were the patches are located) Code: {{{ sudo cp ~/Desktop/099_mac_menubar.patch /var/cache/apt-build/build/gtk+2.0-2.12.0/debian/patches/ sudo cp ~/Desktop/098_no_label_underline.patch /var/cache/apt-build/build/gtk+2.0-2.12.0/debian/patches/ }}} And, add the name of the patches you have added (i.e."099_mac_menubar.patch", "098_no_label_underline.patch")to the debian/patches/series list Code: {{{ sudo gedit /var/cache/apt-build/build/gtk+2.0-2.12.0/debian/patches/series }}} Now we use use apt-build to build the packages Code: {{{ sudo apt-build install libgtk2.0-0 }}} '''NOTE''' Be Patient, this compiles from source, which will take considerably longer than installing from the Binary Package (Binary ~1 Minute | Source ~30 Minutes)[[BR]][[BR]] After that you'll have an update for libgtk in your update manager (it won't install automatically because local apt-build repository isn't signed), let update manager install them and finally, add the applet to the top panel. Now you need to log out/in gnome to see the changes. ~- '''''Uninstallation instruction (__only__ for this second method) :''''' -~ ~- If you have used the apt-build method to install the patched gtk do this to uninstall : -~ ~- 1. Go to menu system > administration > software sources. Pick the “third party software” tab, and uncheck apt-build repository. -~ ~- 2. Then in a terminal type in: -~ ~- Code: -~ ~- {{{ sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --reinstall -y libgtk2.0-0 }}} -~ ~- 3.
