Hi all,

I am currently writing a package manager that builds from source (for
purposes of cross-compilation). I am trying to get gtk2 to build.
Currently it is failing on gtk2's configure step because I am trying to
link against a locally installed version of glib, viz.

checking if msgfmt accepts -c... yes
checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt
checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext
checking for catalogs to be installed...  af am ang ar as ast az az_IR

checking for the BeOS... no
checking for HP-UX... no
checking for extra flags for POSIX compliance... none needed
checking for pkg-config... (cached) /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.16... yes
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.28.0...
*** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.58.1, but GLIB (2.56.3)

*** required on your system.
*** If pkg-config was wrong, set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH
*** to point to the correct configuration files
no
configure: error:
*** GLIB 2.28.0 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/.


I have GLIB 2.58.1 installed locally and GLIB 2.56.3 installed via my
distro. Is there any nice flag I can pass to the configure script to
make it ignore the error and prefer the locally installed library?

Cheers,
Vanessa McHale
