--prefix is probably wrong

Any specific reason you don't use the packages?  (You are on RH , correct? )

Betreff: Re: [rsyslog] rsyslog version


Well the way that I did it per instructions from other online sources I did

cd /tmp
wget http://libestr.adiscon.com/files/download/libestr-0.1.5.tar.gz
tar -xvf libestr-0.1.5.tar.gz
cd libestr-0.1.5
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install


I believe you are correct about the pkg-config which is located in 
/usr/bin/pkg-config

Did I not do it correctly?

that's coz of pkg-config most probably, make sure you have the correct PATH for 
it and that the .pc files were copied when you built libestr.
