Since he's new to Linux, I'll bet the problem is that the RPM version
of glib/gtk (that he removed) is in /usr and the new glib he installed
with ./configure;make install is in /usr/local and /usr/local/bin
isn't in his path and /usr/local/lib probably isn't in /etc/ld.so.conf
or his LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I didn't reply earlier because I use tcsh (because I originally used
it on Unix before Linux existed and haven't taken the time to learn
the minor differences between it and bash). I bet if someone tells
him how to insert /usr/local/bin in his PATH and /usr/local/lib in
LD_LIBRARY_PATH using bash, he'll be up and running. It's setenv in
csh/tcsh - but it's export or two lines, one of which is export in
bash I think.
