What rox support didn't tell you is that the prefix where your package
is installed *does* matter, and that /usr and /usr/local are not the
same: if the python version you are using is installed to the prefix
/usr then you *must* install pygtk to the same prefix. 

This means, yes, that you need to supply --prefix=/usr to pygtk's
configure.

A python -v will tell you what prefix is being used by default (just see
from where site.py is being loaded).

Take care,
