I find the error odd, though, since GTK 2.4.x (and it's dependencies like pango) are binary api compatible with gtk 2.0. > > > > I’m guessing I broke something and I have to download another library > or something? Welcome to dependency hell. Looks like you'll have to put back the older versions of the library and then install the new libraries in /usr/local. Use the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable to point to the new libraries after building glib and before building any program that you want to use the newer libraries.
