gkrellkm 2.1.21 works just peachy for me on FC1 via yum update. If
you're building from a tarball, did you make sure you used the right
./configure options? You probably have to specify where the pango
objects are, as the tarball probably expects them somewhere in
/usr/local by default. Most tarballs expect stuff in /usr/local and
it's up to you to use the "--with-whatever=/path" to tell the configure
script where to find the stuff associated with "whatever".
"./configure --help" should show you most, if not all, of the options
that configure script groks.
