    failing to compile a simple glade app

    Hi all,

    i want to learn gtk programming and made a simple gtk program with glade. When i run the ./autogen.sh script, i get the following error, caused by the ./configure script:
    Code:
    [...]
./configure: line 5034: syntax error near unexpected token `PACKAGE,'
./configure: line 5034: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(PACKAGE, $pkg_modules)'
    I suppose this means that the PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro couldn't be found in the local aclocal.m4 file? In /usr/share/aclocal i found an .m4 file which defined the macro, so i tried to run libttoolize, aclocal, autoconf and automake manually, giving aclocal the parameter
    Code:
    aclocal -I /usr/share/aclocal,
    but this results in the same error.
    Any ideas how to fix that?

    Any help appreciated!

    Problem solved
    It was that autoconf and automake had been installed with different prefixes.
    Both must have the same prefix, e.g. /usr, then it works...
