Re: I can not install nmapfe.

How did you install glib-2.6? If you have compiled it and didn't change
prefix, it would go to /usr/local by default, while system default is
generally /usr. So you must be having 2 glib packages in this case. Gnome
based softwares use pkgconfig to find out various parameters about installed
packages.

You'll have to add following env variable in your shell:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

After adding this, gtk compilation will be able to find new glib.

Cheers,
Manu
