How to build GEGL with GLIB in a non standard directory?

Hi,

I have built all packages source code in /opt directory of my Debian
3.0 box, including glib-2.20.4 in /opt directory. How can I define
glib and other package libraries required in gegl configuration to
build gegl? At the moment I've gollowing errors while I was compiling
gegl-0.1.0 and I could not find how to specify glib to run gegl
configure.


checking for GLIB - version >= 2.16.1... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error:
*** GLIB 2.16.1 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Jupiter

You need to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH (but only at
configure-time).
