Check the configure script that comes with the program (assuming there
is one :) ). Usually, you can do something like (not perfect syntax,
but you get the idea):
-------------------
use gtk || ${myconf} = "${myconf} --disable-gtk"
...
./configure ${myconf}
--------------------
or something to that affect (and assuming that the configure option is
disable-gtk)
