Hi,

I'm trying to install pygtk-2.10.3 on my Fedora Core Release 5.

I get:

> Requested 'pygobject-2.0 >= 2.12.1' but version of PyGObject is 2.8.4

So I installed ppygobject-2.12.3 but I get the same error.

I see that I have 2 pygobject-2.0.pc files:

/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/pygobject-2.0.pc  which says:
Version: 2.8.4

/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/pygobject-2.0.pc  which says:
Version: 2.12.3

I don't think there is anything non-standard on the machine.  I always accept defaults.

So I'm trying this:

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PYGOBJECT_CFLAGS
and PYGOBJECT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

>From /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/pygobject-2.0.pc  
I'm guessing that I want:

PYGOBJECT_CFLAGS=-I${pygtkincludedir}

but what do I do about PYGOBJECT_LIBS=?

Thanks for any help.
