error when trying to install GLib


I have been trying to install Glib on my mac. I typed ./configure in the terminal and it configured the source files. However, I was getting an error when trying to "make install".

enter image description here

any help? thanks

Solution

  • That's actually an error during the ./configure step, not make install (or even make).

    The problem is that glib is looking for pkg-config, but it doesn't seem to be installed on your computer.

    You might want to consider using something like homebrew or macports to install glib. That should simplify things a bit.
