I have no such .pangorc files and I frequently build GTK apps which rely on Pango which work perfectly. From your posts it looks like you are trying to build custom versions of core desktop components like GTK+, Pango, etc. One of the messages complaining about pango shows configure looking for Pango in the /usr/local/include/pango-1.0 directory. Fedora Core puts nothing but empty directories in /usr/local. Maybe you're running one of your 3 custom copies of pkg-config. Pango cflags from an unmodified FC1 installation: $ pkg-config pango --cflags -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include In that same message you're trying to build GTK+ using checkinstall. That will almost certainly break every prebuilt FC1 RPM which needs GTK+ and its various components. And you're apparently building RPMs as root which is bound to utterly demolish your system sooner than later. My suggestion would be to write good spec files (or even moderately bad ones) by hand and dump checkinstall. Especially if you plan to replace vital system components. Or, better, fix the software to work with your system instead of breaking your system to work with the software. > This has been very frustrating to me for the last month.

Which implies you've built your own custom Pango which looks in the wrong place. (e.g. clean out /etc/ld.so.conf, unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH, fix PATH, etc) -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
