Trouble installing GTK

[LonePiper]

I've really been battling with installing GTK so that I can install another program I want that requires GTK.
I've gone through all the packages in package manager and installed everything I could find that even remotely looked like it could be the core program for GTK. I also downloaded the tar.gz, unpacked it and tried installing it manually with the whole ./configure make make install dealie, but no avail. The program I'm trying to install (XMMS) will not recognize that I have GTK installed. In addition, when I try to make install GTK manually it gives up with the following message:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/lonepiper/gtk+-2.12.9/tests'
/bin/bash ../libtool --mode=link -o autotestkeywords
libtool: unrecognized option `-o'
Try `libtool --help' for more information.
make[1]: *** [autotestkeywords] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/lonepiper/gtk+-2.12.9/tests'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

Any thoughts? Any ideas?
Thanks!

Re: Trouble installing GTK

xmms has been replaced by xmms2 for Kubuntu.

Client/server based media player system

XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS music player. It features a client-server model, allowing multiple (even simultaneous!) user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible media library to organize your music.

This package is a meta package depending on various other XMMS2 packages. Installing this package gets you a commandline client and enables XMMS2 playback of Ogg Vorbis and MP3 files from local and remote sources.

xmms2 is available in Adept Manager.
