 I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. Traditionally I'm a Windows

 didn't work: I needed the 2.8 GLIB stuff. I downloaded the source code, etc., 
 for it and compiled GLIB. That worked, but it installed it into usr/local and 
 the GIMP compile still fails. How do I make the GIMP compile read the 
 libraries from the correct location? And I'm not real sure the GLIB compile 
 used the right libraries. Any good references on the matter would be 
 appreciated.


You would have needed the latest glib,atk,pango and gtk

They should have been available from Red Hat? 

If they weren't you should have built them like

./configure --prefix-/usr

If you read ./configure --help you will see that unless you do this, it
will be built in /usr/local

Now that it is in /usr/local you need to set  enviroment variables so
that it picks up that library

Try (presume Fedora is sort of standard linux)

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/lib/pkgconfig/

That way it will look at /usr/local before /usr

  I surprised gtk-2.8 went on without glib-2.8 
 
 Hm?


Well that was a comment out of ignorance of the modus operandii of Windows

I can't build on my linux unless glib,pango and atk are all there in the
appropriate version.

 OK. Script is finished now.
 
 
 I suspect that the error is because I don't have the correct version of 
 GLIB.
 
 What libraries do I need to fix this and where do I put them?


Your suspicions are correct and as the program is looking for 
GLIB - version = 2.8.0 I guess you best install glib-2.8 or better

glib-2.8.4.tar.bz2 is probably the one you are after, found at
http://www.gtk.org or direct thru ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.8/

You don't say, but if you are using Windows, then the above advice may not
apply. 

I surprised gtk-2.8 went on without glib-2.8

  What is the below GIMP Dynamic Text?
 
 Is this: http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=337


That is a Gimp-1.2 plug-in and if you are using Gimp-2.x?, it will not
work.
