--- Quote ---checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.0.0... no
*** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.
configure: error:
The development files for GTK+ were not found. For GTK+ 2, please
ensure that pkg-config is in the path and that gtk+-2.0.pc is
installed. For GTK+ 1.2 please check that gtk-config is in the path,
and that the version is 1.2.3 or above. Also check that the
libraries returned by 'pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs' or 'gtk-config
--libs' are in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent.

I've installed everything around the sun to do with GTK+. I've also set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the two things it's given me.
This isn't my day :(

Have you installed the -dev packages? ie. gtk+-2.0-dev.

If you don't feel like compiling yourself, download the FC4 package from here: http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5358.

Requires original Fedora wxGTK packages e.g. from Freshrpms: http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/ayo/fedora/linux/4/i386/RPMS.freshrpms/

Thanks I've got it working now. I had to yum remove gtk+ first but meh, as long as I've got a working solid IDE.

Just on linux note, Ubuntu is a debian based distribution and it using gnome has nothing to do with this conversation.  The important difference between Fedora Core and Ubuntu in this conversation (and all ones that involve linux software configurations) is that one is based on debian, and the other is Red Hat's unstable version of there Enterprise Linux.  So the whole basis for package organization and install locations is different.
