I also tried to build it from source, but it's looking for fairly old versions of some gnomemm/gtkmm libraries. I do have the FC4 versions of those libraries installed, which are the the latest stable (not development), so from what I can tell, glademm has not kept up with gnomemm and gtkmm. I'd even be very willing to modify the code, if necessary, and compile it against the new libraries, but I know nothing about automake and autoconf. If someone is willing to give it a try with packaging, I'll help in any way I can.
