[syslog-ng] 3.4.3 compile on OpenIndiana WAS: [Bug 173] Compile issues with syslog-ng_3.3.4.tar.gz

[Jerry Kemp]

I'm attempting to compile Syslog-ng ver 3.4.3 on OpenIndiana build 151a7.

I have a fresh compile of eventlog 0.2.12 as downloaded from here:
http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/eventlog/0.2

Eventlog compiled and installed without issue.

I am failing in my "./configure" step with this error:
......................................................
checking for EVTLOG... no
configure: error: Package requirements (eventlog >= 0.2.12) were not met:

No package 'eventlog' found
......................................................

A search of the archives turned up this email.  I didn't really see a 
fix from the archive thread and I am curious if this was ever resolved?

I did follow the bugzilla link, but there was really nothing in the link 
that could assist me with my compile/configure issue....At least nothing 
I could figure out.

I also located this page from a search engine hit discussing the 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH, but it did not help.

http://www.balabit.com/sites/default/files/documents/syslog-ng-ose-3.3-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-v3.3-guide-admin-en/html/install_from_source.html

and various others, to no avail.

Any pointers or suggestions are appreciated.

Jerry
