hello ppl,

I have been trying to compile Gaim from source for my Redhat 9 based system.
I untar the package to a non standard location /home/vrdhananjay/programme ("where is the stardard location anyway?")
Then while configuring the script could not find the path to pkg-config...this i rectified using export for PATH

Theres a new problem while configureing it now...It cannot find GLib 2.0 while configuring...I installed Glib 2.0 from source just sometime back...is there LIB_PATH variable or something that I have to set befoe trying to install?

Thanks in advance

There's the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable which should be set to point to any directories not usually checked by the linker.

post exact error output

usually the answer is actually spelled out in the configure output
