Gtk Works Fine, Except when Root



This one's a bit to deep for me. I finally got Glib and Gtk+ 1.2.9 all installed using the tar.gz files. If I log in as usr, cd to the examples/helloworld directory, and type make, it compiles perfectly fine. The program works perfectly, everything is fine. However, if I do the same thing, but login as root, it gives me the following error:

gcc 'gtk-config --cflags` helloworld.c -o helloworld `gtk-config --libs`
helloworld.c:3: gtk/gtk.h: No Such File or directory
make: *** [helloworld] Error 1

Even more mystifying, if I login as usr, then su to root, it compiles fine. A few more things that may help:

The LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is set to "/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib"

and ld.so.conf reads:
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib
/usr/lib/qt-2.1.0/lib
/usr/lib/qt-1.45/lib
/usr/local/programs/jdk1.2.2/lib/i386
/usr/local/lib

Finally, I am running RH 6.2 and before installing removed all previous versions of glib and gtk+. Also, when originally installing gtk+, I had to use the following argument to ./configure to get it to work:
./configure --with-glib-prefix=/usr/local

If any more information is needed, don't hesitate to ask.

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I remain."
