set environment variable
 

I use the following to try set an environment variable:

set PK_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkconfig

but Mandarake doesn´´t seem to accept this.

I suspect I am doing something wrong. Please help.

Type:
VARIABLE=value
for example:
LANG=pl

To check whether it's right type locale

Try:
$ export VAR=value
and then use env w/ grep to check for it ;)

Thanks for trying to help but if u could please try and help me with what i tried to do. I m thinking:
$ PK_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkconfig

I recommend (in ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile):
PK_CONFIG_PATH=$PK_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkconfig
or
export PK_CONFIG_PATH=$PK_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkconfig

This way you won't overwrite what you already have in PK_CONFIG_PATH

Here is the error I get : http://mysite.mweb.co.za/residents/y...nuxcomplie.jpg

Here are the environment variables: http://mysite.mweb.co.za/residents/y.../Linux/set.jpg

Do you have gtk2 and gtk2-devel installed?

The file it says it can't find is in the directory /usr/local/lib/pkconfig. It arrived there after i compiled the gtk tar.gz file. Will the fact that it is v2.2.3 make a difference?
