Unable to install GAIM on SLES 9


Im having some issues installing GAIM version 1.1.0 from the source... It starts up running the checks for dependencies and such and then has a problem finding GLib 2.0, but I have it installed(says so in YAST). Heres what it says..

Code:
checking for getaddrinfo... yes
checking for socklen_t... yes
checking for pkg-config... no
*** The pkg-config script could not be found. Make sure it is
*** in your path, or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable
*** to the full path to pkg-config.
*** Or see http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig to get pkg-config.
checking sys/utsname.h usability... yes
checking sys/utsname.h presence... yes
checking for sys/utsname.h... yes
checking for uname... yes
checking for pkg-config... (cached) no
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
*** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.
*** See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/
configure: error:
*** GLib 2.0 is required to build Gaim; please make sure you have the GLib
*** development headers installed. The latest version of GLib is
*** always available at http://www.gtk.org/.
Im using SLES 9....
