You've been tolerant of a beginner's question, so let me ask one more. I seem to have built libwpd from the latest sources and installed it. /usr/local/lib has libwpd-0.9.9 dylib, libwpd-0.9.la, and libwpd-stream-0.9.la. And /usr/local/include has a libwpd-0,9 folder. When I try to configure libwpg, I get these error messages: configure: error: Package requirements ( libwpd-0.9 >= 0.9.0 libwpd-stream-0.9 >= 0.9.0 ) were not met: No package 'libwpd-0.9' found No package 'libwpd-stream-0.9' found Further messages suggest adjusting the PKG_ENVIRONMENT_PATH environment variable, or "Alternatively, you may set the environment variables WRITERPERFECTCORE_CFLAGS and WRITERPERFECTCORE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config." Again, any experienced person will know what to do, but I am entirely lost. Any help gratefully received. And apologies for wasting your time with my beginner's questions.
