Hi there again,

Run the folling from the command line:

su -c 'yum install gtk2-devel libglade2-evel'

Enter the root password, when prompted, and things should be all set.

This should bring in glib2-devel, as well. Good luck!


-David

PS: Depending on what else you may have misising (for software 
development), there may be other packages pulled in as well
