Re: balsa patch

Are you using gtk 1.3 or gtk 1.2?  After looking into this some more, I noticed that my system,
which was using gtk 1.3 headers, had a very old gtkfeatures.h in the include directory.  After
"updating" to gtk 1.2, however, the header was replaced with a new gtkfeatures.h.

If you are using GTK 1.3 right now, you really ought to be switching back to gtk 1.2 CVS RSN.  :)
Right now there is enough binary compatibility to where a fresh install of GTK 1.2 will only cause
minor problems with existing apps, but that could change at any moment.  And it could also change
that new versions of GTK 1.3 are no longer compatible with Gnome, the gnome-libs are currently still
pretty much assuming GTK 1.2.

If this is still not the issue, then I'm not sure what is going on that's causing you to miss the
header file. :)
