I think all you had to do was to run redhat-config-packages, select "the GNOME Software Development" component, and let it install the package from the CD. What the complaint was not that you didn't have GTK+ installed, but rather that you didn't have the devel package (gtk2-devel) installed. Most of the Red Hat user interface is based on gtk2, so you couldn't really not have gtk2 installed. There's no reason that you have to learn how to build GTK+ from scratch to be able to program in GTK+, no more than you need to be able to assemble a car from parts in order to drive it.
