I am installing the new version of notify-osd (0.9.25.0ubuntu1), so I need to compile it. However, when I type in ./configure, I get this error.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GLIB_CFLAGS
and GLIB_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


I'm a n00b, so how do I fix this?

if I understand the error correctly (and I am not much "older" than you) you need the -dev version of the library in question (libgconf2-dev)

This at least got me to a point of errors I could make sense of after some head scratching.

Anytime you compile you need to have the -dev of what ever libraries are listed most of the time.
