Hi Amitha,

I think Gtk should be build using CMake.

Anyway, I think we should modify all Find(toolkit).cmake to use
appropriate (toolkit)-config files. We do this for wxWindows and it
works fine. There is no reason for it not to work. Maybe we could have a
boolean:

IF(TOOLKIT_USE_CONFIG)
  FIND_FILE(TOOLKIT_CONFIG toolkit-config /usr/bin...)
  SET(TOOLKIT_LIBRARY ...)
ELSE(
  FIND_FILE(...)
ENDIF(
