atk having problems finding glib


When i try to compile atk I get a error that I need the following.

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error:
*** GLIB 2.0.0 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from xx

The thing is i just compiled and installed glib-2.2.3

This is on a Fedora install

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I am installing glib and atk in the /usr/local/include dir. Is this even the correct place I should install these?

I fixed the problem by going to add/remove packages and adding gnome and kde software developement. Now atk installs fine. Thanks anyway.
