Good afternoon,
 
I can't give any help in regard to installing GTK...
I tried it on Windows Vista and on an Apple iMac...but alas with no success...
I spent about a week on this effort...
 
If anyone wants to set up a 'task force 'to get this GTK install working for 'newbies' - count me in...
 
Good day

What does 'echo %INCLUDE%' and 'echo %PATH%' output? You might want to
try installing the dependencies separately to see where its going
wrong. For instance 'cabal install glib' and 'cabal install cairo'
etc. Let me know if I can help you further.

OK, I tried that and get the following output.

This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that
provide these libraries (you may need the "-dev" versions). If the libraries
are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the
flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are.
