gio.h no such file or directory

I am trying to compile the GIO example program code at here on developer.gnome.org link. And the command I am using to compile it is

    g++ gdbserver.cpp `pkg-config glib-2.0 --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0 gio-unix-2.0`

But an error message

    package gio-unix-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path
    (... the remaining pkg-config message ...)
    error: gio/gio.h: No such file or directory
    (... other g++ error messages ...)

glib and glib-devel are installed ( I think GIO comes with glib, right?) Is there a mistake I am doing here.

edit : The centos5.5 I am using (I am supposed to use it) has glib2 version 2.12 and only glib2 with version 2.15 or higher come along with GIO. I am not sure how to install GIO seperately.

You need

g++ gdbserver.cpp `pkg-config glib-2.0 gio-2.0 --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0 gio-unix-2.0`

(Note the addition of the gio-2.0 pkg-config name.)

CentOS 5.5 does not have gio. It uses gvfs instead.
