Hi,

I need to build a newer version of 'gstreamer' & 'glib' in my ubuntu 8.04. So I get the source, and run './configure --prefix=/home/michael/bin; make; make install'

But what do i need to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to in other for my another program's configure to see it?

I tried export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/michael/bin/lib/pkgconfig

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/michael/bin/lib

But for some reasons, Webkit's configure still cant' find both libraries.
