pkg-config is a bit silly about paths sometimes... IIRC, if you install something in /usr/local, it won't be found by something you're trying to install in /usr. Can be solved by moving the .pc files around (normally found in PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig), or making symlinks. However, I think the proper solution is to install things so that you never have dependencies in the wrong direction. It makes some sense that libs in /usr shouldn't depend on /usr/local. //David Olofson - Programmer, Composer, Open Source Advocate .- Audiality -----------------------------------------------. | Free/Open Source audio engine for games and multimedia. | | MIDI, modular synthesis, real time effects, scripting,... | `-----------------------------------> http://audiality.org -' --- http://olofson.net --- http://www.reologica.se ---
