When you see a message like this, it means some dependency is missing. In this case, GTK is what is used to actually make the UI.

Have you installed the dependencies? https://github.com/alarm-clock-applet/alarm-clock/#debianubuntu-specific-dependency-packages

That said, the build system shouldn't have gotten that far without the GTK development files (libgtk-3-dev), so I will need to look into that as well.

Yes, I did! did not help or fix anything.

I looked into it further, and this is an issue with Kumander.

As a workaround, you can run the following command which will create a symlink (a shortcut) so that the compiler can find the correct files. You only need to run this once.

sudo ln -s /usr /opt/gtk

and then simply proceed with the make command as per the instructions.

What happens is the following files in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/ have prefix=/opt/gtk set, and that path does not exist. It should be set to prefix=/usr.

C:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig>grep -R /opt
gail-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gdk-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gdk-wayland-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gdk-x11-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gtk+-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gtk+-unix-print-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gtk+-wayland-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk
gtk+-x11-3.0.pc:prefix=/opt/gtk

You will need to contact them, linking to this issue, so that they can fix this issue in their OS.
