You probably have an old glib-config having around on your system

type 

which glib-config

this will tell you which version is being found and executed. It may not be
the correct version.

glib-config is a program which is installed with glib. It tells programs
information about what version of glib is installed and where to find the
components. If you have had an older version of glib installed in a
different location, then you will need to remove (or move to another
location) the old glib-config.

Put the correct glib-config program in your executables path.

So that it gets found before the old version.

Hope this solves your problem
