Thanks Chris,

My apologies for the late reply.  My system crashed, due to some fiddling i did
as root ( :-P ). I have re installed the OS, but now have not gone back to try
out sawfish again.  But no, I dont know if pkg-config was installed or not.
I will start over and try it out again.

Sincerely,
Irfan
