If /lib/pkgconfig exists, then something is installed incorrectly. There should really only be /usr/lib/pkgconfig, and the lightly used /usr/share/pkgconfig. In some cases, depending on package install options PKG_CONFIG_PATH may contain /opt/*/{lib,share}/pkgconfig or /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig. Of course it's your distro, but pkgconfig is only used during a build procedure and the support libraries for linking at build time should not be in /lib. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
