-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 At least i think that's what this is. After a successful install of eventlog, i get this at syslog configure: - ----- checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for GLIB... yes checking for EVTLOG... configure: error: Package requirements (eventlog) were not met: No package 'eventlog' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables EVTLOG_CFLAGS and EVTLOG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. - ----- Why can't pkg-config find eventlog? Should i go bug Gentoo about this? (there's an eventlog ebuild, but it's masked...). And syslog-ng itself is at 1.6.9 (in ebuilds). Yeah, i looked at man pkg-config, I'm not sure how to proceed. Should i be telling p-c where to find it, or bypassing p-c entirely..? I see this: /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/eventlog.pc which contains: - ----- prefix=/usr/local exec_prefix=${prefix} libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib includedir=${prefix}/include/eventlog Name: EventLog Description: General system logging format library Version: 0.2.5 Cflags: -I${includedir} Libs: -L${libdir} -levtlog - ----- Seems like enough info, yah? What went wrong? Anyone else on Gentoo hit this..?
