Welcome to configure hell. Now you understand those of us who hate it.
# ./configure
checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext
Wonder of wonders. It found your gettext.
checking for g++... no
Odd.
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.18... yes
checking libgoffice-0.5... not found
checking for GTK... configure: error: Package requirements (
libglade-2.0 >= 2.3.6
gtk+-2.0 >= 2.10.0
) were not met:
No package 'libglade-2.0' found
No package 'gtk+-2.0' found
Version of gtk2 needs to be 2.10.0 or greater. Even though your RPM
output doesn't indicate that, it's likely to be the case.
You need to check the file config.log to see exactly what is bombing
and why. Also, you need to play with pkg-config and see what *it*
thinks is installed as opposed to what RPM thinks is installed.
We hates configure.

I can see why. I don't know much about what I see in config.log, but it
does seem to keep trying to use g++ even though it knows that it's not
there. I don't know how to get g++ but here's the contents of the log file:
# cat ./config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by gnumeric configure 1.7.91, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.61. Invocation command line was
$ ./configure
## --------- ##
## Platform. ##
## --------- ##
Major amount snipped out here.
configure: exit 1
If the goal is to install gnumeric, what's wrong with
$ sudo yum install gnumeric
I did this on Fedora Core 3, so it probably is available for you.
If the goal is to learn how to compile programs, start with something
less complicated.

yum only installs up to the official stable version (1.6.3). One of the
developers of gnumeric said that they are no longer supporting that
version or the print problems in it and suggested that I move to version
1.7.91 for which there is no rpm that I could find. 1.6.3 prints thru
gnome's print system whereas 1.7.90 and later print thru gtk+,
supposedly eliminating many of the printing problems in gnumeric.
