Hi,

I'd like to help testing the gnome2 branch of GC when it is ready and 
I'm trying to prepare by building gnucash from CVS but I got stuck when 
  autogen reported the following error:

...
checking if unsigned long is at least as big as guint32... yes
checking if guile needs our copy of srfi-1... no
checking if guile needs our copy of srfi-11... no
checking if guile needs our copy of srfi-19... no
checking if guile needs our copy of srfi-2... no
checking if guile needs our copy of srfi-8... no
checking if guile needs our copy of srfi-9... no
checking if guile needs our copy of (guile www)... yes
checking for pkg-config... (cached) /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for gconf-2.0 >= "2.0"... Package gconf-2.0 was not found in 
the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gconf-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gconf-2.0' found

configure: error: Library requirements (gconf-2.0 >= "2.0") not met; 
consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your 
libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

I tried to install (with yum) the package "gconf-2.0" but such a package 
doesn't exist.  My system is running on FC4.

What am I doing wrong?
