pango-1.8.0 compilation error

[Glenn Evans <glennevans primus com au>]

Hi,

Warning: I'm not a programmer.

When I run make for pango-1.8.0, I get the following errors:

I have successfully installed all the other required packages, including 
glib-2.6.0 (pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0 returns "2.6.0"). My 
current version of pango is 2.4.0.  gtk+-2.6.0 will not install unless 
pango is 1.7.0 or later.

Can anyone tell me what my problem is?

TIA,

Glenn
