Yes indeed, thanks for the hint.

Also, due to a posting by Simon Wright on comp.lang.ada I realized that gprbuild is on GitHub.
Next time, I will try building that instead of resorting to the GPL distro.

Seems like you might want to simply use

   ./configure --without-GL  --prefix=...

when you configure, to disable openGL support altogether, rather than the "hack" you just did.

Seems like an installation issue here.

Strange that this would not be included by pkg-config, though. We cannot hard-code this in
GtkAda, since gtk+ doesn't depend on X11 for all supported systems.

Thanks for the feedback
