So find it -- it should not be hard as pkg-config can do that for you: pkg-config --variable=prefix glib-2.0 will print its installation prefix -- and get rid of it. I do not know how the other GLib got there, you may need to repeat this process with other libraries. Generally, do not install more than version of a library simultaneously unless you need it and know what you are doing. > I thought this odd, so the first thing I did was to go through teh > configure script, looking for search path entries that included > /usr/lib but not /usr/local/lib, and added the latter.
