I tracked that down to the following piece of code in configure.in :

PKG_CHECK_MODULES(EXIF, libexif = $LIBEXIF_REQUIRED,
have_old_libexif=yes, have_old_libexif=no)

I don't know why but it sets have_old_libexif to "yes"

If I manually do :

#jhbuild shell

#pkg-config --exists "libexif >= 0.5.12"
#echo $?
0

#pkg-config --exists "libexif = 0.5.12"
#echo $?
1

#pkg-config libexif --modversion
0.6.9

So my temporary solution is to disable the "old exif lib test"... and it
works...

If anyone with more insight could guide me I would be very happy ;)
