GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating
graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of
widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from
small one-off projects to complete application suites.

Source:  http://www.gtk.org/

you may download it(source) from 
http://www.gtk.org/download/

or get it via yum as root user
# yum install gtk

which should work taking care of dependencies that may
occur.  In the case that the latter yum command is
wrong, someone on the list will hopefully correct me
as I am starting off with yum, updating the kernel
, and kdegraphics using yum.  I updated kdegraphics
because of a font error in kdvi which was a reported
bug.  Now, it is working fine after updating.  

[olivares at localhost ~]$ rpm -qa kdegr*
kdegraphics-3.4.1-0.fc4.2
kdegraphics-devel-3.4.1-0.fc4.2
[olivares at localhost ~]$ uname -r
2.6.12-1.1398_FC4
[olivares at localhost ~]$

Kind regards,

Antonio
