Well, I have perhaps a workaround, which might work for you as well:
Lets try a 'rpm -i --nodeps' on the rpm Package first, execute it, and if the same error shows up again with the executable, then look at /etc/ld.so.conf if your library path are all there and included. If not, add the appropriate one (in your case /opt/gnome/lib or better /opt/gnome/lib64) and try again.
You could also get the src.rpm Package of your normal rpm and try a local rpm --rebuild on it to get an individual rpm package, which might then be installable without the '-nodeps' option.
