Please, please, read:

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html

This describes, step by step, how to install GTK+. By doing things
like copying .pc files all over the place, you may get your
system into a state that you'll *never* be able to recover from.

Well, you installed GLib-2.0.6. In the same directory as you
found GTK+-2.2.4, you'll find GLib-2.2.3.

I think you are using Linux. On Linux, you *must not* install libiconv;
libiconv is basically parts of the GNU C library split out into
a separate library. Having both the GNU C library and libiconv on
your system doesn't work.
