Thanks! It did work. I did:

        [EMAIL PROTECTED] rodolfo]# urpmf glib-config
        libglib1.2-devel:/usr/bin/glib-config
        libglib1.2-devel:/usr/share/man/man1/glib-config.1.bz2

, then

        [EMAIL PROTECTED] rodolfo]# urpmi libglib1.2-devel

and installed the package; then tried again with /.configure
and got a new error message:

checking for gtk12-config... no
checking for gtk-config... no
configure: error: * * * unable to find gtk12-config or gtk-config in path! *
* *

. But by now I had learned the trick: I did:

        [EMAIL PROTECTED] abi]# urpmf gtk-config
        libgtk+1.2-devel:/usr/bin/gtk-config
        libgtk+1.2-devel:/usr/share/doc/libgtk+1.2-devel-1.2.10/gtk-config.txt
        libgtk+1.2-devel:/usr/share/man/man1/gtk-config.1.bz2
        man-pages-fr:/usr/share/man/fr/man1/gtk-config.1.bz2

, then

        [EMAIL PROTECTED] abi]# urpmi libgtk+1.2-devel

and installed the new package;
then finally the ./configure could go on until the end.

Thanks again,
Rodolfo
