Re: Having problems installing ATK, getting configure error regarding glib

[ajinkya jayawant <ajinkyajayawant gmail com>]

i had previously installed 2.32.0 then uninstalled and deleted it.and i had posted the error log from previous installation.
but after installing 2.32.4 ,i checked it again,it was giving the same error.
but now i decided to post the fresh error for 2.32.4,and i cant believe my eyes.i am checking again and again whether its atk that just got compiled.the thing which was not compiling for last 1 day with all efforts suddenly is getting compiled.so i did 'make' .it is a success.then i did 'make install'. that too performed successfully.there can be only one reason for it getting compiled this time.last time i was messing with library paths and pkg config paths and i never closed terminal after downloading 2.32.4.and there was obviously problem in 2.32.0 because it was somehow clashing with system glib.
Thanks to you guys.it would never have been possible without a discussion.

i have tried doing

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

./configure --prefix=/home/jink/gtkin PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/jink/gtkin"

./configure --prefix=/home/jink/gtkin PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib

i have tried installling and uninstalling glib twice or thrice and installing another version.but i am getting the same error.i am not able to understand what to do now,please help.

i dont know whether attachments get sent in this mailing list or not so i am sending config.log file as another mail.
