[wplug] PKG_CONFIG_PATH in ./configure?

Hmm,

Put /usr/local/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig next time.

I've had some problems withthis- by default it's going to look for 
everything in /usr/lib/pkgconfig, but lots of stuff likes to install in 
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig which for some reason isn't in your path in a 
default redhat installation.

I solved the problem this way:

as root:
cp -l /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/* /usr/lib/pkgconfig
