Or do this as root:
rpm --rebuild glib-1.2.6-1.src.rpm
[... building process ...]
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/glib-1.2-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/glib-devel-1.2-1.i386.rpm
rpm --rebuild gtk+-1.2.6-1.src.rpm
[... building process ...]
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/gtk+-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/gtk+-devel-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm
Then RPM won't complain anymore (it needs to know what packages in which
versions are installed, which have these and those files ...).
