a subversive response:
i went to rpmfind.net and looked at one of the glib packages:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/kondara/jirai/i586////glib-1.2.8-3k.i586.html
the reason is because it lists what the packages require. this one
requires libpthread.so.0. so i would look for this file. if you dont see
it, you'll have to find a tar.gz (thats what slack uses right?) for it. if
you do see it add an option in ./configure to point to it.
