Compiling from source?  Why?  

You are running an rpm system with about at least a dozen outside repos
to get you this kind of stuff.  

Download smart, smart-ui and smart-update from here:

http://dag.wieers.com/packages/smart/

Ok fire it up and make sure dag, dries and freshrpms are enabled.

gxine is in there and the only gotcha is that you need to click the
update button before all the outside repository rpms show up.

Btw, your compile problem is the fact you did NOT install gtk+-2.0-devel
packages and probably other development packages needed to compile
something from source.
