Summary:                    Problem with cmake module FindGTK2.cmake in Ubuntu
>= 11.04 (Natty Narwhal)
Description: 
Hi,

Some Ubuntu maintainers have a dissenting opinion where the header files should
be placed in the system...

So you need to take into account some features of Ubuntu Natty:
they moved file /usr/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h
to directories:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include/
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include/

Temporary I solved this problem in our project with following patch:
--- a/cmake/FindGTK2.cmake
+++ b/cmake/FindGTK2.cmake
@@ -185,6 +185,10 @@ function(_GTK2_FIND_INCLUDE_DIR _var _hdr)

     find_path(${_var} ${_hdr}
         PATHS
+            # fix for Ubuntu >= 11.04 (Natty Narwhal)
+            /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/
+            /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
+            # end fix for Ubuntu >= 11.04 (Natty Narwhal)
             /usr/local/lib64
             /usr/local/lib
             /usr/lib64

The Ubuntu maintainer proposed to use pkg-config.
I don't agree with him, but this problem must be fixed in cmake project in any
way.
Or maybe you will be able to convince ubuntu developers undo this change.

Thank you for convenient and useful project.

Boris
