I would strongly suggest you use a distribution where competent people
have already packaged the software you use. Basically I would suggest
you give Debian GNU/Linux a try. There are more than 400 maintainers
who work on some packages, knowing these very well and providing excellent
setup. You'll find Gtk, Gnome and a bunch of Gtk- and Gnome- related
tools, both runtime and development versions. I know that RedHad has
things packaged as well, you could try that one, too. Personally I'm
very happy with Debian.

Joey
