pip install pygtk does not work and fails with:

Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
********************************************************************
* Building PyGTK using distutils is only supported on windows. *
* To build PyGTK in a supported way, read the INSTALL file.    *
********************************************************************

----------------------------------------

I just know that this will be tagged duplicate, but this is different, it's on WSL. And the solutions mentioned here do not work?

How is it this difficult? And where is PyGTK hosted anyway?

from PyGObject:

If you want to write a Python application for GNOME or a Python GUI application using GTK+, then PyGObject is the way to go.

Apparently PyGTK is made available through PyGObject which can be installed with:

sudo apt install python-gi python-gi-cairo python3-gi python3-gi-cairo gir1.2-gtk-3.0
