Where did you install glib? I am guessing you have glib installed twice.

As suggested above, set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable to where 
your pkgconfig file is for your new installed glib.


Or set the set the BASE_DEPENDENCIES_CFLAGS and
BASE_DEPENDENCIES_LIBS as suggested above to see the glib (and other 
libraries). Setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH sems better though.
