well, here's the full output of my own pkg-config installation;

gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0 GdkPixbuf Xlib - GdkPixbuf rendering for Xlib
gdk-x11-2.0         GDK - GIMP Drawing Kit (x11 target)
gmodule-2.0         GModule - Dynamic module loader for GLib
gdk-pixbuf-2.0      GdkPixbuf - Image loading and scaling
gtk+-x11-2.0        GTK+ - GIMP Tool Kit (x11 target)
glib-2.0            GLib - C Utility Library
gobject-2.0         GObject - GLib Type, Object, Parameter and Signal 
Library
gthread-2.0         GThread - Thread support for GLib
gtk+-2.0            GTK+ - GIMP Tool Kit (x11 target)
pangox              Pango X - X Window System font support for Pango
pango               Pango - Internationalized text handling
gdk-2.0             GDK - GIMP Drawing Kit (x11 target)
atk                 Atk - Accessibility Toolkit

after installing GTK-2 from the sources.

To be honnest, I installed this in a separate environment because I 
didn't want interactions
with my existing gnome 1.4 installation.

I used a prefix of /opt/gtk2 but feel free to use your own prefix :-)
compile everything in the same prefix:
1)pkg-config
2)glib
3)pango
4)atk
5)gtk2

for each one use ./configure --prefix=/your_prefix_here
make
make install (as root)
ldconfig (as root)

then create a script to set the right environment for compilation. You 
can either write a standalone
script of include this in your .bashrc file (if you use bash).

the path and LD_LIBRARY_PATH of your gtk2 installation must at the 
BEGINNING of the path
so that it's used before any other path.

example:
#!/bin/sh
export PATH=/opt/gtk2/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gtk2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

and you can expand your MANPATH as well.
No need to modify your ld.so.conf with this method.


This method will always work, on any system (at least Linux). Of course 
if you want a full
gnome2 installation it's not that simple, but for gtk2 development it 
works fine :-)

Hope this helps!
