To compile GWhere you need :
libgtk-1.2-devel-1.2.x, libglib-1.2-devel-1.2.x and zlib-devel
You should need some others programs as Make, automake, ... But theses programs
are often installed on your system.

To run GWhere you need :
libgtk+1.2-1.2.x, libglib+1.2-1.2.x and zlib

I'm not sure to understand your problem but can you tell us your error message
about directories?
Have you tried the version 0.0.26? Have you the same problem with it?

The presence of libgtk+2.0_0-2.0.6-8mdk it's not a problem. In fact the next
version, GWhere 0.1.0, could run with it.
