Hi, I'm trying to compile latest stable syslog-ng (3.0.3) release on Solaris 10. I have compiled glib (2.10.3) with ./configure --enable-static --with-libiconv --prefix=/usr/local/inp/glib. Eventlog was installed by Sun administrator in my company: $pkginfo |grep -i event application SMCevtlog eventlog Which is installed to /usr/local/lib Everything is fine if I run configure like this: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/inp/glib/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/inp/glib/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./configure but if I try compile it with static: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/inp/glib/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/inp/glib/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --enable-static-linking I'm getting this error: checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for a BSD-compatible install... ./install-sh -c checking whether build environment is sane... ^Z ... ... checking for pkg-config...
