Thanks! I was starting to think that same way. The software consists
of two packages libhdhomerun and hdhomerun_config_gui. However on the
website they only talk about compiling the second, where the first
will tag along. And indeed in libhdhomerun there is no mentioning of
GTK and the README is not empty!:

"This library implements the libhdhomerun protocol for use with Silicondust HDHomeRun TV tuners.

To compile simply "make" - this will compile both the library and the hdhomerun_config command line
utility suitable for sending commands or scripting control of a HDHomeRun.

The top level API is hdhomerun_device - see hdhomerun_device.h for documentation.

Additional libraries required:
- pthread (osx, linux, bsd)
- iphlpapi (windows)"

Thanks again for helping me think! But they should mention this on
their website.

Tot mails,
