• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Paul 2005-07-31 10:22:31 UTC]

As posted on gentoo forums [http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2614915.html]:
My most recent emerge -uDav world failed to compile control-center-2.10.1-r1.
It failed with:
Code:
...
checking for libmetacity-private... Package libmetacity-private was not found in
the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing
`libmetacity-private.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package
'libmetacity-private' found
configure: error: Library requirements (libmetacity-private) not met; consider
adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a
nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

following this post I did
Code:
emerge --unmerge metacity

then
Code:
emerge control-center

This went fine until I got the new error:
Code:

It works now, after latest emerge sync && emerge -uDav world
