Hello,
I am having problems building pkg-config-0.26. The following is the
output when I try a make:

As you can see, it cannot find lglib-2.0, the glib-2.0 library. The
makefile was created with the following configure command:
GLIB_LIBS=-lglib-2.0 GLIB_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 \
./configure --prefix=/usr
I noticed that the actual name of the library file in /usr/lib is
libglib-2.0, so I tried changing GLIBS_LIB in the above to libglib-2.0
and to libglib-2.0.a which had the same results. From looking at the
makefile I am having a hard time trying to figure out where it is
looking for library files. I think that Libtool is being used for
things like that, but not sure.
If gcc is trying to link to -lglib-2.0 the library should be called
libglib-2.0.so How did yours not get the .so at the end?

It looks like it is trying to link to "lglib-2.0" instead of
"-lglib-2.0". Perhaps you accidentally left out the "-" in the configure
command?
Thanks!! I knew it had to be something simple. And that is one of those
things that one can look at all day and see nothing wrong. It is
amazing how a fresh set of eyes looking at the problem can catch things
like that. Hoping to make a learning experience out of this, can you
point me to some docs or a web site, that explain how the makefile and
gcc interpret "-lglib-2.0" and wind up linking to the desired library.
Thanks again!!!
Martins
