Hello,

I have downloaded empathy from git and tried installing it to work upon the love bugs posted in the gnome love bugs by Xavier Claessens but i am unable to install it as it says
"Requested 'telepathy-glib >= 0.7.27' but version of Telepathy-GLib is 0.7.26"

i have downloaded the tar.gz file and installed it proving it to be futile effort
it says to manually set the pkg-conf path for non standard installations and i am unable to do that can any one guide me through.

cheers,
shirish

Most likely, your manually built telepathy-glib got installed
to /usr/local, and your distributor built version (the one from
apt/yum/whatever) is in /usr. If I'm right, the
file /usr/lib/pkgconfig/telepathy-glib.pc says it's version 0.7.26,
and /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/telepathy-glib.pc says it's 0.7.27 (or
whatever you installed).

To include the file in /usr/local, run the configure script like:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH ./configure

You can also run
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
and after running that, you can just run ./configure as usual.
