Hmmm, that may have solved the problem right now but it is not good in

of /usr as installed by the rpm).
You should have installed the development packages:
apt-get install libsndfile-devel fftw3-devel
They are part of the Planet CCRMA repository.
This may not be a problem now but it will/can when packages are upgraded
in Planet CCRMA and become out of sync with the development files you
have.

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnome-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libgnome-2.0' found
It seems like my dependency problems are because the various package
metadata (.pc) files don't exist. After getting the source and
rebuilding them (libsndfile and fftw), the .pc files were now in place
(/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig) and the gwc build successfully got past those
points. So, why do I not have the .pc metadata files in my FC3
even though the
actual library files were there (in /usr/lib) all along? Is this what

Yup...
This reminds me that when I installed FC3 from CCRMA,
I choose NOT to
install any of the "Development" packages like:
"Development Tools"
"X Software Development"
"Gnome Software Development"
etc
Would installing these have prevented these dependency problems?
It depends on what you want to compile.
I thought I'd try to go back and add them from the
FC3 CDs but when I
check them and say "go" I get a "Packages Not Found" error pop-up
saying
installation cannot continue because a bunch of packages could not be
found like netpbm, xorg-x11-libs, glib2, pygtk2, gtk2. So now I can't
even add packages from the original FC3 CDs I installed from. 8^(
Using which program? The "Add/Remove Applications" in the Fedora menu?
Did you install from the original Fedora cdroms? That should work, I
guess.
help.... 8^)
If you have the standard URL's in your apt sources.list configuration
file all those packages should be installable through apt-get.
If you want to compile something and it complains about software being
missing, for example, glib2, then see if you have the development
package installed:
rpm -q glib2-devel
if not then try to install it:
apt-get install glib2-devel
