glib error in configuring xfce4-dev-tools

Hi!

I'm trying to build xfce  on Ubuntu Server 14.04 and I am getting this error when I run './configure --prefix=/opt/xfce4' in xfce4-dev-tools

./configure: line 11630: syntax error near unexpected token `Glib,'
./configure: line 11630: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GLIB, glib-2.0 >= 2.24.0)'

I retrieved and built the glib 2.24.2 source in /usr according to some other post I found on the internet.

I'm assuming that I must somehow suppress glib-2.0 or something else to do with glib.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

Ryan

Re: glib error in configuring xfce4-dev-tools

It looks like pkg-config isn't installed. http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/ With ubuntu you could probably run apt-get install build-essential and apt-get build-dep xfce4-dev-tools to get the required dependencies in place.
