That seems to be the message configure outputs when you don't have the
appropriate devel packages (glib-devel, gtk-devel, etc. or whatever SuSE
calls them).

In particular:

pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0 glib-2.0 pidgin

should output something sensible.

Does that help?  [Note that you'll need to use cvs libotr and pidgin-otr
in order to compile against pidgin.]
