Ian,

I installed gtk2.0-dev now I get output 
-D_REENTRANT -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/directfb -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/pixman-1

This wasn't there in the INSTALL of pidgin-otr but was in the libotr I am going to try this. However I still have the libgcrypt.h not being found issue (from other mail).

Can you tell me how to compile. I looked for several hours for mingw32 and libgcrypt etc. but couldn't find a way to cross-compile or 'mingw32 compile' it. Its not described in the package. Can you tell me how you got this to work ? 

Thanks,
Sec
