Hi Everyone,

Just got my box all setup with slackware 9.1, Am trying to install the linux
version of soulseek but it keeps saying i dont have gtk2+ installed, which i
did install when i did the setup...

So i decided to compile the latest gtk2+ but get this error:

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0... Package
pango was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `pango.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'pango' found

configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1
pango >= 1.4.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment
variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can
find them.

I compiled glib-2.4.0 and atk 1.0.1 and installed fine, but with pango, its
compiles fine and make install goes well but when i try to compile gtk2+ it
says i dont have it...

Can anyone shed some light on this please...

Regards,
Seb

$ find / -name 'pango.pc' -print 2>/dev/null
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/pango.pc

Hence you could try setting the following, before you ./configure :

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig
