[SOLVED] sonata-svn fails during make process

I tried to compile sonata-svn yesterday but got this message during the make process...

mmkeys.override:6:23: error: pygobject.h: No such file or directory
In file included from mmkeys.override:7:
mmkeys/mmkeys.h:23:21: error: gdk/gdk.h: No such file or directory

mmkeys.c:75: error: expected ',' or ';' before ')' token
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
==> ERROR: Build Failed.
Aborting...
Error: Makepkg was unable to build sonata-svn package

Can anyone help me to figure out why I'm getting this error? I have pygobject installed as well as gdk libs. Let me know if there is any other information needed to help me out here.
Thanks

Re: [SOLVED] sonata-svn fails during make process

Just a guess: Do you have gdk-pixbuf installed?

No I didn't have it installed, installed it but got the same error message.

Re: [SOLVED] sonata-svn fails during make process

Install pygobject and try again. pygobject.h belongs to that package, which should be added as makedependency.

Yeah, I had that installed, I tried reinstalling pygobject but I'm still getting the same error message. 

Have any other ideas?

Thanks for the help.

That didn't help me out at all, archlinux doesn't have -dev packages and I already had the corresponding arch packages installed.

Man, this is frustrating, I would really like to get this figured out.

Re: [SOLVED] sonata-svn fails during make process

Do you actually have the files mentioned in the error messages?

/usr/include/pygtk-2.0/pygobject.h
/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdk.h

Other possibility: Did you change your makepkg.conf? If so, what did you change?

Forgot to say: sonata-svn builds fine here, so I suspect something is wrong on your system.

I do have those files and have never changed my makepkg.conf file.

Man this is getting annoying. Thanks for the help though, appreciate it.

Re: [SOLVED] sonata-svn fails during make process

So I was able to find a solution. I installed pkgconfig, ran yaourt -S sonata-svn again and everything worked great. I guess I had never installed base-devel before, the few other packages I've compiled from source worked well without it though. Thanks for the help everyone.
