CentOS

Recently I have learned about [url=http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/]cinnamon[/url] and have been using it on my Ubuntu installations much to my content.
As such I have been trying to also use it on my CentOS 6.2 installation, however I am running into an issue to which I have not found a solution (yet).

Since no package for cinnamon is available within the repositories I have been trying to build it from [url=https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/tags]source[/url].
After unpacking and running the ./configure command I run into the following error:
[code]configure: error: glib-compile-schemas not found.[/code]

With the "which glib-compile-schemas" I get the following response:
[code]/usr/bin/which: no glib-compile-schemas in (/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/home/username/bin)[/code]

Also it seems that no package provides this since I get "No match found" when using the command
[code]sudo yum provides "/glib-compile-schema"[/code]

Searching the internet I have found the error being mentioned more often but I have not been able to find a solution.

I am hoping that someone has found a way around this error or can provide me with an alternative way to install cinnamon.

TIA

A google on [url=https://www.google.com/search?q=Cinnamon+%22src.rpm%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a]Cinnamon "src.rpm"[/url] indicates efforts to get it into Fedora, but there is no package in the repos, even for [url=http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/source/SRPMS/]rawhide[/url]. I'd find a [url=http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/leigh123linux/cinnamon/fedora-16/SRPMS/]SRPM[/url] and try to follow [url=http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/RebuildSRPM]How to Rebuild a Source RPM[/url], but would give up if dependencies required replacement of core packages.
