Actually, if he is running gnome 1.0 he probably just has the "wrong"
version installed (in this case wrong means more up-to-date)  The RPM he
is using is old, it is looking for gtk1.1.14, but Gnome 1.0 generally uses
Gtk1.2.x.  I would suggest looking for a newer version, one that was built
agains gtk1.2.x.
