Not a threat, but an utterance of frustration and feable plea for help ;)
I know I'm not worthy..

As, you suggested, I copied 'gal-2.2.pc' -> '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig'
This took care of the error, now "pkg-config --modversion gal-2.2"
yields -> 2.1.12  :)

I believe that I'm almost there. The compile seems to die here:

# gleened from 'config.log' in evo 1.5.90 src tree
configure:30108: checking for evolution-data-server IDL
configure:30116: error: no

However, I do have e-d-s 0.96 installed on my system.

See below:
agreen rufnek:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig$ more evolution-data-server-1.0.pc
prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

idldir=${prefix}/share/idl/evolution-data-server-1.0
IDL_INCLUDES=-I ${idldir} -I /usr/share/idl/bonobo-2.0 -I /usr/share/idl/
bonobo-activation-2.0

Name: evolution-data-server
Description: The evolution data server for the calendar and addressbook
Version: 0.0.96
Requires: libgnome-2.0 libbonobo-2.0 >= 2.4.0

What have I missed ?
Thx for the help and expeditous response..
