Careful: the gtextra release you refer to above is for Gtk 1.x, not Gtk 2.x.

If you want to compile against Gtk 2.x you'll need to get the gtkextra-2
branch (anonymously) from CVS, per the instructions at

	http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=11638

Once you've got an extracted CVS tree on Linux the next step(s) usually
consist of

	cd gtkextra-2
	./autogen.sh

followed by

	./configure
	make
	make install	[optional]

As far as linking your own apps against GtkExtra, just look at the Makefile
targets for the test* programs (in the ./gtkextra subdirectory of the 
CVS tree you've extracted) for a few examples.

Good Luck,
Michael S. Noble
