Glib problem!! for GTK+ install,pls help

[ivikas]

hello,

i want to try out GTK+.so from their website i downloaded the following source files

Pango 1.20.0

Glib 2.18.0

I have done a clean install of above two like this

./configure---reported clean
make
make install

And now when i tries to install gtk+-2.14.0, the installed old version
is taking up and new one is ignored.I don't know where the new one(Glib 2.18.0) is installed and set path to this

This is what ./configure script of gtk+-2.14.0 outputs


checking for pkg-config... (cached) /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.16... yes
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.17.6...
*** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.18.0, but GLIB (2.16.6)
*** was found! If pkg-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of GLib. You may also be able to fix the error
*** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing
*** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is
*** required on your system.
*** If pkg-config was wrong, set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH
*** to point to the correct configuration files
no
configure: error:
*** GLIB 2.17.6 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/.


So, it will be highly appreciated if anyone can help me to get it up and running.

Thanks in advance,
Vikas

*** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.22.1, but GLIB (2.20.1)
*** was found! If pkg-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of GLib. You may also be able to fix the error

no
configure: error:
