I installed the following in /usr/local/gtk2 of a Red Hat 8.0 system:

pkgconfig-0.14.0.tar.gz
glib-2.2.0.tar.gz
pango-1.2.0.tar.gz
atk-1.2.0.tar.gz
gtk+-2.2.0.tar.gz
libglade-2.0.1.tar.gz
pygtk2 from CVS (as of tonight)

I set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to:
/usr/local/gtk2/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig/

inserted /usr/local/gtk2/bin at the front of my path and
/usr/local/gtk2 at the front of my LD_LIBRARY_PATH

set my PYTHONPATH to:
/usr/local/gtk2/lib/python2.2/site-packages

And now my python app complains:

libglade-WARNING **: Could not load support for `gnome': /usr/lib/libgnome.so: undefined symbol: poptHelpOptions

This looks like an error caused by a bug in libglade-2.0.0 that was fixed by 2.0.1. When looking for the gnome support module, it would sometimes fall back to looking in $(libdir) if it couldn't be found, and it would sometimes pick up the gnome 1.x libgnome.so. You will need to set the LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH environment variable in order for libglade to find the support modules provided by libgnomeui, libbonoboui, etc (probably /usr/lib/libglade/2.0).
