configure:6576: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "gavl >= 0.2.3"
Package gavl was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gavl.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gavl' found
configure:6579: $? = 1
Package gavl was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gavl.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gavl' found
configure:6595: error: *** gavl >= 0.2.3 not found - this program 
requires the $  video library >= 0.2.3 http://gmerlin.sourceforge.net/ ***

]$locate gavl.pc
/home/tom/temp/gavl-0.2.5/gavl.pc
/home/tom/temp/gavl-0.2.5/gavl.pc.in
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/gavl.pc

So, I did this:  ]$ *export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ *
and then,  echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
 
Will carry on, and thank you very much for your help.
