RE: gtk-list digest, Vol 1 #620 - 7 msgs

I hate to bother the list w/ this, but...
I have glib-1.2.9 installed on Solaris 2.6 in /usr/local.  When I
./configure GTK 1.2.9, I get the error below, but  glib-config lives in
/usr/sbin/.  

How do I work around this?


checking for glib-config... /usr/sbin/glib-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.8... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
*** that the run-time linker is not finding GLIB or finding the wrong
*** version of GLIB. If it is not finding GLIB, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the installed location  Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that

*** If you have a RedHat 5.0 system, you should remove the GTK package that
