I was trying to set up the 1.70.0 Crossfire client on Ubuntu 12.04. Unfortunately, I could not get the configure script to recognize GTK. I had gtk3 installed, but that clearly was not what it was looking for.
What package in the Ubuntu repository would have to be installed for the configure script to recognize GTK?

libgtk2.0-0
libgtk2.0-dev
libglade2-0

This worked for me on Ubuntu and Xubuntu 12.04
libgtk2.0-0

I installed those packages (I don't know how I missed the dev packages on the first time through 
), but it would not load the metaserver selection window fully (the window would appear, but it would not go any further).
I uninstalled libgtk-3-dev, wondering if it was causing a problem, and then the client worked.
Although the original problem was not gtk3, it seems that gtk2 and gtk3 conflict with each other, and should be noted for future reference.
