Keeping two different versions of GTK+ on the same system.

[Fabrício Barros Cabral <fxcabral yahoo com br>]

Hi people!

Well, I am running a Debian Unstable distro and have a GTK+
installed from Debian's packages (v 2.2.4), but I would like
have too another version of GTK+ (from cvs) on my system
without remove the Debian's version. So I did:

GNOME_HOME="/usr/local/gnome-home"

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GNOME_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export MANPATH=$GNOME_HOME/man:$MANPATH
export PATH=$GNOME_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$GNOME_HOME/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export PERL5LIB=$GNOME_HOME/lib/perl5/site_perl:$PERL5LIB
export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I $GNOME_HOME/share/aclocal"
export ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS="-I $GNOME_HOME/share/aclocal"
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$GNOME_HOME/share


It worked fine to compile GLib (from cvs), but didn't
worked to compile another libraries, like Pango.
I think there is something wrong when the compiler
tries link the library with GLib (from cvs).
As you can see on the error message:

So, as you can see, the compiler is referencing both GLib
libraries (Debian's GLib and CVS's GLib) and I don't know why.
Could anyone help me with it?

Thanks in advance,
