Hi all,
I am trying to compile Lazarus and 'make' always errors saying it
can't find libglib [1].
Other threads have advised that I install libglib. I have done this
[2] but the problem persists. Is lazarus looking for a different
version or in a different location?

Any help is appreciated ....

I had to:
apt-get install libglib1.2-dev libgdk-pixbuf-dev
and all was well.
Thanks ...
