The fact that you only guess isn't good - You should know what you're
doing. You might get the (newer) versions of the libraries that are
required from the same place where you got your nautilus 2.26.0 (?)
from.

Then it's the wrong mailing list, and for example gnome-love would be
more appropriate...

Proposal: Patch and compile Nautilus 2.22 instead of 2.26, so you don't
run into all these dependency issues.
