Ok.. that's what I started with..
and I got and am now getting the same error:
checking for pkg-config... no
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
*** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.
*** See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/
configure: error: GLib2 distribution not found.
So we're back where we started :-S In the previous attempt I installed glib2-devel which of course is for the development machine...
So this is what I did in my first attempt:
yum install bison
yum install flex
yum install pkgconfig
yum install glib2-devel
./configure --disable-wireshark --disable-editcap --disable-capinfos --disable-mergecap --disable-text2pcap --disable-idl2wrs --disable-dftest
--disable-randpkt --disable-rawshark
