Summary0013519: FindGTK2 fails to include libgmodule
DescriptionWhen building a package that uses cmake as its build system and includes GTK2, the libgmodule library of glib is not included in the linking list.

The specific example is one of the test codes for gtk-fortran.
Steps To ReproduceOn a system with PC-BSD installed. Needs the gtk+ 2 libraries & gfortran.

1) Download gtk-fortran (branch gtk2-old) from github.com:
    git pull https://github.com/jerryd/gtk-fortran.git [^] gtk2-old

2) Build it:
    mkdir build
    cd build
    cmake -D CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=gfortran46 ..
    make

3) Run the gtkbuilder2 example:
    ./examples/gtkbuilder2

   The callback routines are not found, c.f. gtkbuilder which does not need libgmodule where they are found.
Additional InformationI have only seen the problem on BSD, not Linux.

Are you linking against GTK2_LIBRARIES (see the top of FindGTK2.cmake for examples of how to use it)?

project(Foo)
find_package(GTK2 REQUIRED gtk)
message(STATUS "GTK2_LIBRARIES = ${GTK2_LIBRARIES}")

should output a list of libraries that includes:
  libfreetype, libglib, libgobject, libgdk_pixbuf, libgdk-x11 (on *nix), libgtk-x11 (on *nix), libcairo, libpango, and libatk.

It's possible that you are doing this correctly and gobject library detection is simply not working on your platform. I did notice that it's not listed as a mandatory requirement for the FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS call at the bottom, but it should be. So it wouldn't be flagged as an error if it were not detected.

If that's the case, please provide details on where the gobject.h & libgobject*.so files are stored on your platform.

Thanks
