http://hei.unige.ch/~strba5/nvu-0.70-1.fc3.fs.i386.rpm and http://hei.unige.ch/~strba5/nvu-0.70-1.rhel3.fs.i386.rpm
The source package is at: http://hei.unige.ch/~strba5/nvu-0.70-1.fs.src.rpm
The spec file is to be found at: http://hei.unige.ch/~strba5/nvu.spec
The source package should be building on all released Fedoras. I do not have fc2 and fc1 installations, so I could not test it and on RH9 and RHEL3. During the build the distribution is detected and corresponding patches are applied.
I would appreciate to have a feed-back if there is any problem with it.

I'm wondering where I can find an RPM for NVU-0.70 for Fedora 3. Ive tried
installing the fedora Core 2 version from nvu.com, but, it gives me an error
stating that I must first install gtk+2, but, I don't know where to get that
either. I have tried:
yum install gtk
gtk2
gtk+2
I'm fairly new to Linux, and I don't yet completely understand how to build
from source, so, an RPM is preferred. Thanks!

I don't see a Fedora Core 2 rpm for 0.7, but there is now an FC3 rpm for 0.6. You might try to download the spec file for 0.6 that they have and use it with the SuSE src.rpm to rebuild it. I earlier found a Mandrake src.rpm and after editing the spec file some was able to rebuild it for the x86_64 architecture. The rpm didn't work perfectly (a menu creation macro for post install doesn't work), but NVU seems to work. One of the changes I had to make to the spec file was to change the gkt+2-devel dependency to gtk2-devel, so maybe you are seeing something similar. On FC3, the packages are called gtk2, and not gtk+2, which the rpm seems to be expecting. I may try rebuilding 0.7 with the given FC3 spec file. If I have any success, I'll let you know.
