I emerged gnome-2.12.1 The portage took care of all the dependencies except glib which should be >=2.8.0 FROM COMPILATION: checking for i386-pc-linux-gnu-pkg-config... (cached) /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for GNOME_DESKTOP... configure: error: Package requirements (gdk-pixbuf-2.0 >= 2.4.0 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.4.0 glib-2.0 >= 2.8.0 libgnomeui-2.0 >= 2.6.0 gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.0.0 libstartup-notification-1.0) were not met. Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively you may set the GNOME_DESKTOP_CFLAGS and GNOME_DESKTOP_LIBS environment variables to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. !!!
