Problem installing xmlrpc

When installing xmlrpc I get the following message:

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

To get pkg-config, see <http://www.freedesktop.org/software/
pkgconfig>.
See `config.log' for more details.



I tried it with the other command (PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/
pkgconfig" ./configure --with-xmlrpc-c) but that didn't make a
difference.

Any ideas? I'm installing it on Xebian (Debian on the Xbox).

[Kim Eik]

you are missing pkg-config.
apt-get install pkg-config

Thanks for the very fast reply!

I got the no libtorrent error, so I added the variable, and still get
the following:

xbox:/usr/src/rtorrent-0.7.8# PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/
pkgconfig" ./configure --with-xmlrpc-c

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for STUFF... configure: error: Package requirements (sigc+
+-2.0 libcurl >= 7.12.0 libtorrent >= 0.11.8) were not met:

No package 'sigc++-2.0' found
No package 'libcurl' found
No package 'libtorrent' found

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

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

Any thoughts?

# ldconfig
# PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig" ./configure

generally fixes those problems for me atleast.

try to find "libtorrent.pc" and give the path to the configure script.

I don't seem to have that file:

make sure libtorrent was compiled and installed correctly.
