gtkmm2.2 is deprecated, please switch to gtkmm (which is the latest version). gtkmm2.2 has been removed from the repositories a few days ago.

Gtkmm is a bunch of libraries and includefiles, they contain no binaries. The library is intended for use by developers. I guess your gtkmm development documentation which ships your examples has instructions about compiling examples with gtkmm.

The why this output from pkg-config:

`pkg-config --libs gtkmm`
Package gtkmm was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtkmm.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gtkmm' found

I removed the gtkmm2.2 and the gtkmm1, updated the gtkmm.

For example lets look at gtk, if I say "whereis gtk" it returns this:

whereis gtk
gtk: /etc/gtk /usr/include/gtk

Why doesnt whereis gtkmm give me about the same output?

So how do I include gtkmm in my program?

Edit: nevermind, figured it out.
