"Show Native Synth GUI" is grayed out when right-clicking the Calf Fluidsynth LV2 in MusE

[Ota-Coder]

Since nobody seems to respond in my post in Linux Musicians for days now about the problem I'm facing - https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=23826 - thought I post here.

Hope that's alright as I haven't resolved this issue to move on.

I'm using an Arch based Garuda Linux LXQt-KWin. MusE is version 4.0.

Found this thread through search in Linux Musicians but it's on Ubuntu - https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=21560 - and a reply says:

I think Calf uses gtk UIs.
You likely did not install the necessary GTK development packages.
Install them and reconfigure MusE then rebuild.
MusE will automatically pick them up since the cmake option 'ENABLE_LV2_GTK2' for them is enabled by default

but that would mean I have to recompile?

I'm trying to follow this relatively older video - https://youtu.be/PFOUnyH3irU?t=537 - and trying to learn from it.

Both of the below are installed:

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/gtkmm/
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/gtk2/

And Arch doesn't split their packages up into smaller packages. You just have one package so it should work but it's not working at my end?

I'm relatively lost what I should do to solve this problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi. I happened to see this post.
It can be closed now, since it was a distro and MusE specific problem,
and it was solved in the LM post.
