Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnome-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

Help

It appears by looking at the last few lines of your post that you are missing, (or as it also suggests, it is in a different location than where it is looking),
libgnome-2.0. Try locate libgnome-2.0, failing that, you need that dependancy.

install the devel packages for libgonme-2.0 and whatever else
