Actually I tried your advice first (before proceeding
with Dave's) and the result was the same as before. In
what I pasted I simply repeated the step you suggested
*again* after following Dave's advise, just to see if
the result would be different. It wasn't.

I still don't know what you guys mean by "system
installed". I install everything manually. The system
does not install anything itself, so this is quite
confusing for me.

To test things with the opposite combination I removed
gobject-introspection and installed
perl-Glib-Object-Introspection.

Then I ran:

$ rm -rf ~/.cpanm/ ~/perl5/
$ cpanm XAOC/Gtk3-0.032.tar.gz

which gave:

! Installing XAOC/Gtk3-0.032.tar.gz failed.

Here is the full output:

So far I have run command #1 from above before each
attempt. If that is wrong please suggest a procedure
which I should try.

I am on Leap 15.0 here and using
perl-5.26.1-lp150.6.3.1.x86_64. Not sure if that
matters.

You are a Perl expert and you obviously know what you
are doing but as of this moment I know neither how to
use Gtk3 for the needs of clawsker, nor how to "stick
to the Gtk2 version" (which I was actually asking for
in my second message in this thread).
