I didn't try this yet.

Thanks Glenn for this useful list of packages.I tried building the 
latest GNU Emacs from CVS head (unicode one). I was able to build the 
normal flavor successfully and it works fine. However when I try to 
build the GTK flavor (--with-gtk switch to configure), the configure 
step fails. This option would need the GTK header files (gtk-devel). Can 
someone suggest the package that provides GTK header files?

Also I am trying to find which package provides 'xmkmf' (utility that 
creates Makefile from Imakefile) as I am trying to compile TightVNC. I 
am not sure if there is already some package that provides vncserver.

Thanks -
Praveen
