I found the php4-pcntl-gtk package and tried to install it but it died saying "Missing Dependency: libglade.so.0 is needed by package php4-pcntl-gtk". I found that poackage and tried to install it and got "Missing Dependency: libgnomeui.so.32 is needed by package libglade. Missing Dependency: libart_lgpl.so.2 is needed by package libglade...."...and so on and so on.

libglade, gnome-libs, etc. have been dropped from Fedora Core for FC6.
As they are needed for pptpconfig, I have submitted them for inclusion
in Fedora Extras. So far, only libpng10 and ORBit have made it through
the review process. If gnome-libs and libglade aren't ready by the time
FC6 final freeze happens, I'll put them in the PPTP Client project's FC6
repository (which doesn't currently exist) until they make it into
Extras.

Paul.
