From the spec:

BuildPrereq: glib2-devel popt gettext pkgconfig

I'm not sure how you're getting this error.

Makefile patch to reposition pkg-config calls

I've got a patch, which works by changing the position of the `pkg-config` call
in the makefile.

I have _ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY_ no clue why this should matter, but hey... It works
for me.
With this, initscripts compiles in mock.
Comment 4 Bill Nottingham 2006-05-16 20:19:30 UTC 
That change switches it to link glib2 into the apps dynamically instead of
statically - initscripts needs to link it statically as those apps are in /sbin
and may be run before /usr is available (where the glib libraries are.)

It appears that glib lost its static libraries in rawhide. Any reason why?

Comment 6 Matthias Clasen 2006-05-24 01:38:12 UTC 
glib lost its static libraries in accordance to the general policy of not shipping
static libraries. To fix initscripts and pam, I have moved glib to /lib now.
