It must be located (in your case) in "/usr/local/bin". Read its manual or just start 'gtk-config --cflags --libs' it will show the location of gtk+-1.2 headers and libraries. If smth looks wrong you always can edit it. Use that tool to compile your program.

In the "/usr/local/lib" the libraries live. You must not copy header files there. By the way, if you compiled gtk+-1.2 from sources you can take a look at "gtk+-1.2.9/examples" directory - its full of examples, each of them has a makefile.
