Hello! Given: OpenSUSE 13.2 x86_64, XFCE 4.10. Pidgin version in repos is out-dated (2.10.10-5.4.1), so I tried to install it manual from sources downloaded from https://www.pidgin.im/download/source/.
So, wget && tar && cd ./pidgin && ./configure. But ./configure fails with ===== configure: error: You must have GLib 2.16.0 or newer development headers installed to build. If you have these installed already you may need to install pkg-config so I can find them. ===== sudo zypper se -s pkg-config command shows that pkg-config 0.28-7.1.2 x86_64 is installed. Pidgin's config.log shows: 1. ===== configure:12494: checking for pkg-config configure:12512: found /usr/bin/pkg-config configure:12524: result: /usr/bin/pkg-config configure:12549: checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0 configure:12552: result: yes ===== 2. ===== configure:15612: checking for GLIB configure:15619: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "glib-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gobject-2.0 gmodule-2.0 gthread-2.0" Package glib-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
