Problem updating gtk-4

Gtk-4.12.3 compile phase stopped because of this error:

Code:

FAILED: gdk/gdkresources.c

/usr/bin/glib-compile-resources gdk/gdk.gresource.xml --sourcedir /home/kal/BLFS/gtk-4.12.3/gdk --sourcedir ../gdk --c-name _gdk --internal --generate --target gdk/gdkresources.c --manual-register --dependency-file gdk/gdkresources.c.d

[5/1866] Generating GObject enum file gdk/gdkenumtypes.h (wrapped by meson because command contains newlines, to capture output)

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

I did install latest glib-2 but still giving those errors.
TIA

Why do you need gtk-4.x? Surely, that's the bleeding edge?

LFS is about learning. The bleeding edge is for developers and testers. If you really want to go after it, find out about that undefined symbol "g_string_free_and_steal" and go from there.
