Include also the relevant parts of config.log (while looking for the relevant parts are you can also find out what the problem is, but include all of it in the worst case). > I am running Redhat W4/UPD4 on an intel-64 box. But first of all restore the system to a sane state. Restore the overwritten files from rpm (--replacepkgs --replacefiles) and then remove the bits that were not replaced by anything from rpm (removing libs can render your system unusable therefore the reverse order is likely to cause troubles). Then choose a non-system prefix and install everything there, see for example http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2006-December/msg00113.html > I have installed Pango successfully.

Don't do that. But if you insist, look up the error in the configure script and either insert some debugging messages or try to manually reproduce what it does to see why it does not like what it gets. > Please reply to me directly at <avassilicos@xxxxxxx> because my company's > firewall does not allow to go to the list web page to view replies.
