How can I configure a newer version of gstreamer in ubuntu 8.04

[hap 497]

Hi,

I need to build a newer version of 'gstreamer' in my ubuntu 8.04. So I get
the source, and run './configure --prefix=/home/hap497/bin; make; make
install'

But what do i need to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to in other for my another
program's configure script can see it?

I tried export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/hap497/bin/lib/pkgconfig

and:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/hap497/bin/lib

But for some reasons, Webkit's configure script still cant' find gstreamer
libraries.

maybe you need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well. not sure what kind of
checks webkits configure runs. Also check the config.log file  - that
gives more detail about what actualy failed.
