Hi There!

The default glib will install in /usr/local. glib and gtk+ use a
configuration file called `glib-config' and 'gtk-config' respectively
when they are building. There are two work arounds for you:
1)
Rebuild glib with ./configure --prefix=/usr
This causes glib to be built into the /usr directories where RedHat
normally places them. Beware that if your glib falls over, then you'll
have to reinstall the glib libraries before it will work again.
2)
Rebuild gtk and other glib based things with ./configure
--with-glib-prefix=/usr/local
I think that prefix is correct. You might want to attempt this because
it's less likely to break your system but you'll have two sets of glib
living there.
