A version of gtkmm compatible with CentOS 5 is available from
the same location you probably got the gsmartcontrol package from, that is:

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/alex_sh/CentOS_5/i386/

You will need all those packages, except the ones with "-devel" and "-docs"
in their names.

The "24" part refers to gtkmm API/ABI version, while the actual gtkmm version
should be equal or higher than 2.6.0.

Usually, it's better to ask the packager (me, in this case), rather than
the developers of one of its dependencies (the gtkmm people).

Thanks,
Alexander
