Can't build the sources

[Félix Brezo]

I followed the instructions as follows:

# Dependencies
sudo apt-get build-dep scratch-text-editor
# Getting the sources as stated in the INSTALL file
bzr branch lp:writer
# CD-ing in the folder
cd writer
mkdir install
cd install
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/
make

Unfortunately, I got the following:

Linking C executable writer
CMakeFiles/writer.dir/src/Widgets/TableChooser.c.o: En la función `writer_widgets_table_chooser_setup_ui':

Why version of GTK+ are you using?

gtk_label_set_xalign() is available only since 3.16 https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-xalign

Freya cannot update GTK+ as it would mess everything up so why write for eOS when it can't be run and installed without potentially harming the system and messing the whole granite framework up?
