The Qt version of the GUI builds by default and this is the preferred GUI for use.
For those who must have GTK/Gnome style,
the GTK version of the GUI can be selected to build with:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DGTK=1 .. # Release build using GTK GUI
For those who must have GTK/Gnome style, there is a GTK style plugin for Qt that

The Qt version GUI by far exceeds the old GTK gui in capability and performance.
The Qt GUI can build/link against both Qt5 and Qt6. To enable building against Qt6, use -DQT6=1 argument:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DQT6=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
To do the actual compiling:
