If you read up on rpm and how to use it, you will save yourself a lot of
time trying to find solutions to this kind of a problem.

rpm -qf /usr/bin/gtk-config

will tell you that the file is part of gtk+-devel. What this probably
means is that besides the glib update you probably need to update the
gtk+ and gtk+-devel rpm's first. Then, if you get more error messages,
just track them back to the rpm the same way and eventually... you will
get everything updated to where your software will compile.
