[SLUG] gtk+ can't find -lXt

[Nick Croft <nicko@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've got a budget size debian install on this small hd. I'm compiling 
gtk+ but the config fails right at the end where it says

Checking for X... no

The tail end of the config.log :

configure:4525: checking for X
configure:4592: gcc -E  conftest.c >/dev/null 2>conftest.out
configure:4668: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall   conftest.c -lXt   1>&5
configure: In function `main':
configure:4664: warning: implicit declaration of function `XtMalloc'
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXt
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 4661 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"

int main() {
XtMalloc()
; return 0; }

I've tried both 1.2.8 and 1.2.6

I've apt-got a few other files the compiler found missing but am stumped
on this one. I would have though "X" was fundamental.

Help would be much appreciated please.
