If you really want to, go for it, no skin off our noses (or to paraphrase, threats hold little weight around here :).

You shouldn't need to set either ld_library_path (i presume its in your ld.so.config?  have you run ldconfig as root?), or especially LDFLAGS - LDFLAGS will be determined by the pkg-config stuff.  Although neither of those should cause harm either.

What does "pkg-config --modversion gal-2.2" show?  If nothing, then you don't have the pkg-config path setup properly or something to that effect.

Well, that is'nt in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig is it?  PKG_CONFIG_PATH needs to have the paths to where the .pc files are located.

It seems odd that it is there, is that the source tree or something, since the installed files aren't there at all.

I suggest just copying it to /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig.

It's probably finding these, it will fail the test if just one of the tests fail.
