[Gtkradiant] Re: GtkRadiant running on FreeBSD!

[Timothee Besset]

I don't see what the problem is with libxml2 and Gtk. Those, along with
all the other libs (libjpeg, and maybe libpng) should be installed on the
system already. The only thing that's needed on our end is cons scripts
with appropriate `xml2-config --cflags` etc.
