If you use ./configure --prefix=/opt for glib then when you compile pango you will need to do: export PGK_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=/opt Make sure you install all the gnome packages into the same prefix.. Hope this helps.. Daniel _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
