Re: can't install gtk2.0 on solaris 2.8

[Sylvain Jaume <jaume tele ucl ac be>]

Dear Owen, Amir, and Valdis,

I tried to do what you told me:
in .cshrc:
setenv PKG_CONFIG_PATH "/export/home/jaume/build/lib/pkgconfig"
set path = (.\
	    /export/home/jaume \
	    /export/home/jaume/build/bin \
[...]
set LD_LIBRARY_PATH = (. \
		    /export/home/jaume/build/lib \
[...]
source ~/.cshrc
I re-named the src directories: pkgconfig, glib, and pango.
mkdir /export/home/jaume/build
cd /export/home/jaume/pkgconfig
./configure --prefix=/export/home/jaume/build
gmake
gmake install
cd /export/home/jaume/glib
./configure --prefix=/export/home/jaume/build
gmake
gmake install
cd /export/home/jaume/pango
./configure --prefix=/export/home/jaume/build
I get the error message:
[...]
checking for pkg-config... /export/home/jaume/build/bin/pkg-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...

LD_LIBRARY_PATH
configure: error:
*** Glib 2.0.0 or better is required. The latest version of
*** Glib is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.

Any hints?
BTW I'm using glib-2.0.7.tar.gz I've downloaded today.
