Good.

Maybe, but probably not...

Since vxl requires GTKGLExt, it simply checks for that and its
dependencies. This means that pkg-config will return both the GTKGLExt
libraries and the GTK2 libraries. Vxl does not check for GTK2
explicitly. So, if you don't have GTKGLExt, you don't have GTK2 as
far as vxl is concerned. This explains your symptoms.

Email back if installing GTKGLExt does not solve the problem.
