Dependency issue with instaled deps

I'm trying to install gwget. I get the following error when running
Code:
$ ./configure
<snip>
checking for libgnomeui-2.0 >= 2.0.0
                          gtk+-2.0      >= 2.4.0
                          libglade-2.0  >= 2.0.0... Package libgnomeui-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnomeui-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libgnomeui-2.0' found

configure: error: Library requirements (libgnomeui-2.0 >= 2.0.0
                          gtk+-2.0      >= 2.4.0
                          libglade-2.0  >= 2.0.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH 
environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
However
Code:
$ slocate libgnomeui
returns the following:

/usr/share/doc/libgnomeui-2.8.0/ChangeLog
/usr/share/doc/libgnomeui-2.8.0
which leads me to believe the package is installed.

How do I "add the directory containing `libgnomeui-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable"?

should be the default but to check it:

echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH

will give you the directories pkg_config_path is currently searching. to export a new directory to search (in this example i will use /usr/local/lib but it could be anything)

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

will do.

Code:
linmix@localhost ~]$ echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH

[linmix@localhost ~]$
??? so it's not set at all?

once I do "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
" will that be permanate or do I need to ad it each time I run into a similar problem?

no its not set.

when you export it, the path will be set for that session only. Once you log out (or close the xterm/console if thats what you are in) it will go back to unset. to make it permanent, add the export line in /etc/profile (this will be a global setting ie. all users) or to your $HOME/.bashrc file (for one specific user only).

by the way, that was a little wrong up above:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

is the right command (don't forget to add the pkgconfig directory at the end)
sorry about that.

check /usr/lib/pkgconfig and /usr/local/pkgconfig for the libgnomeui.pc file and add that directory to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH for configure scripts to pick it up
