These are called dependency errors.
The program you are trying to install , requires some files/packages which are currently not installed on your system.
You need to download and install those dependency rpms.
To do so, goto to an rpm repository like:
1.http://www.rpm.pbone.net
2.www.rpmfind.net
3.tuxfinder.org
enter the missing dependency name in the search box, download the desired rpm, install it using rpm -Uvh command and then install the original rpm again using rpm -Uvh command.
In your case of gaim,
First download and install this rpm:
Download and use this rpm:
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/dag.wieers.c ... 0.i386.rpm
or if the above doesnt work then:
ftp://ftp.muni.cz/pub/linux/freshrpms/a ... 3.i386.rpm
or
ftp://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/redha ... 2.i386.rpm
Install it using rpm -Uvh gtkspell-2.0.4-2.i386.rpm
The install that gaim rpm using rpm -Uvh command
It should work.
