Thanks..its worked.. it gave other errors for the folowing packages and 
i installed the corresponding package

pyorbit-2.pc : pyorbit-devel.i386
ORBit-2.0.pc : ORBit2-devel.i386
gdk-pixbuf-2.0.pc : gdk-pixbuf-devel.i386

but event after installing gdk-pixbuf-devel.i386 using yum, i get the 
error for gdk-pixbuf-2.0.pc. What could i have done wrong?

the > yum list gdk-pixbuf* command gives me the following output :

gdk-pixbuf.i386                          1:0.22.0-18           installed
gdk-pixbuf-devel.i386                    1:0.22.0-18           installed
gdk-pixbuf-gnome.i386                    1:0.22.0-18           installed
