can't install marionnet with the script

The script marionnet_from_scratch suppose the host GNU/Linux
distribution not minimalist, because it's very hard to know the precise
name of some basic package, like graphical (X) and GTK packages.
However, the error message is quite clear : you have to install the GTK
libraries. For instance, on Ubuntu 16.10 the names of related packages are :

libgtk2.0-0 libglib2.0-0 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libgtksourceview2.0-0

So, you have just to find the precise name for your distribution and
install them.

Gaël: among these you may already have libgtk2.0-0, even if your
distribution is minimalistic.

You should also install what is your distribution's equivalent of what
is called libgtk2.0-dev on debian; «-dev» packages contain the C header
files needed at compile time to link external libraries written in C.
Let's hope you don't have similar problems with more obscure libraries.
