This time I'm compiling Phasex on Asus Eee, Atom

./configure is failing thus:

Looks like I'm missing something important on this brand new install?
looks like a missing PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro to me. which is odd
considering that it's included in aclocal.m4 (via an inline pkg.m4)
did you regenerate the build files at some point? (by running aclocal and friends)
just above that we have "checking for X... no" which also seems to be a bit
wrongular.
i see this:
checking for X... libraries , headers
checking for gethostbyname... yes
checking for connect... yes
checking for remove... yes
checking for shmat... yes
checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for GTK... yes
so you may have some deeper problems with missing development packages.
you might want to just check that pkg-config is installed though.
