glib/gtk+2.0 and glib/gtk+2.2 are not parallel installable (nor are other
relevant libraries such as pango-1.0 and pango-1.2). If you do not want to
delete the old versions, you can do what you want by installing updated
versions of the relevant libraries in a different directory and forcing the
correct library version to be loaded by setting the environmental variable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH (to the directory with the correct version in) in the shell
you launch abiword from (and compile it in), but I fear getting this
correctly compiled and working will be more than you can manage.
However, I do not really understand how you have managed to get into this
position. I am not very familiar with abiword and I have decided not to use
it for other reasons (and I have not yet got round to unsubscribing from the
mailing list), but I have just run the configure script for abiwork-2.0.1 and
it only requires version 2.0 of glib and gtk+, and not the minimum version of
2.1.3 that you report above.
Chris.
