installing gtk+-1.2.0

["uma G" <g uma 1986 gmail com>]

Dear GTKers,

I've been having trouble compiling GTK+ apps for some time now.
./configure always goes through its regular motions until:

checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.2... yes
checking for gtk-config... no
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** The gtk-config script installed by GTK could not be found
*** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gtk-config.
configure: error: Test for GTK failed.

My version is gtk+-1.2.0.  My glib is glib-1.2.2.  I
have no file called gtk-config, nor does it seem to exist in any
distributions of GTK+ whose list of files I've read on RPMfind.  I'd be
very obliged if you could sort me out on this.

Keep up the great work, and thanks,
Uma.
