Most likely it's b/c ./configure is looking for glib-config in /usr/bin
and it can't find it there. Mine was installed in /usr/local/bin.
Although some people have advised against it I put both versions (for
old glib and new glib that i had just compiled) of glib-config in
/usr/bin and renamed them by putting the version number after the
filename. Then i made a symlink called glib-config to the newer version.
Here is what a directory listing looks like to show you:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root /usr/bin/glib-config -> /usr/bin/glib-config-1.2.8
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root /usr/bin/glib-config-1.2.6
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root /usr/bin/glib-config-1.2.8
