pkg-config reports incorrect version

[Rich Shepard]

   When I run 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' it reports 2.8.6, but I have
2.12.1 installed. This mis-match confuses 'configure' when I try to build an
application.

   The man page and mail list archives did not suggest how I can tweak
pkg-config to report the correctly installed library. Your help is needed to
teach me how to resolve this.

Thanks,

Rich
