hi,
it says you need glib 2.0 or better
glib-2 is a substitute c library used mostly by gtk-2/gnome-2 programmers
if you have gnome-2
your system has an ok glib but not the glib developement (header)files needed by the compiler to compile programs agains the library.
figure out what version of the library you have
(my system has both 1.2.10 and 2.2.1)
and get the develpement package for your version of glib-2 and install it
