Build Chromium with error about libgio on Ubuntu 10.04

I tried to build Chromium on my Ubuntu 10.04 with the cmd, ninja -v -C out/Debug chrome. But I got this error, and found nothing by googling related information.

I've followed the instructions on http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxBuildInstructions before building. Could someone help me if you know how to resovle this? Thanks a lot.

I was also facing the same issue. Digging up a little bit more, I found that the latest releases of GTK doesn't have above APIs. Please follow the below steps to build Chromium on Ubuntu 10.04:

  1. Download an old release of GTK, for ex. from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.38/glib-2.38.2.tar.xz
  2. Extract, configure, compile and install this.
  3. Re-generate your chromium projects
  4. Build again using ninja -C out/Debug chrome

Remove bundled gsettings header now that we're using Ubuntu Precise. you can build with 12.04
