Hi Wayne,

The BLFS page for Glib-2.30.1 has a note under Command Explanations:
"PCRE_* and LIBFFI_*: Glib is a prerequsite for pkg_config, but it
wants to use pkg_config during the build process. These environment
variables work around not having pkg_config available."

Are you sure you took the exact configure line as described in the BLFS book?
