Hi,

Ok do the following: first get the python-devel RPM and install it.
I've made a patched version of automake which includes the necessary
patches:

http://daddy.stuco.uni-klu.ac.at/automake-1.4-py1.src.rpm
http://daddy.stuco.uni-klu.ac.at/automake-1.4-py1.noarch.rpm

Install it ;-) Then you need the .m4 file of gtkglarea (here we go:

http://daddy.stuco.uni-klu.ac.at/gtkgl.m4

copy it to /usr/share/aclocal

Then you're ready to build gnome-python ... type 

autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
make install

This should do it (on a redhat 6.1 machine)
