gtkpod compiling fails through dependency error

[rbalasus]

Hello first of all, this seems to be a very common problem, solving this is not only related to gtkpod....

I try to install gtkpod from svn, in the first step I compile libgpod from svn, after this I try to compile gtkpod from svn. But ./configure breaks with this error below:

checking for LIBGLADE... yes
checking for LIBGPOD... no
configure: error: *** Requested 'libgpod-1.0 >= 0.6.1' but version of libgpod is 0.6.0
See `config.log' for more details.

It seems there is only the version number wrong, how can I override this check, or what can I test manually???

Hi rbalasus, your problem origin from your /etc/portage/package.keywords

You have unlock only the 0.6.0

To unlock all the version for the libgpod >= 0.6.0, just change :

Hello thanx for the help.
I figured out the problem. The gentoo packages are installed in /usr packages which are not from the distri are stored in /usr/local and there is the problem. It seems that the path /usr/local is not in the search path of the user root. I don't know how to fix this....
In my case I was searching for the appropriate package file for libgpod
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libgpod-1.0.pc
and was linking it to /usr/lib/pkgconfig, that was all in the next configure all was working correctly.

The only open point for me is: where can I define that all searches are going over /usr/local too......
