[SOLVED]build bluez tarball : dbus not found (but installed)

[solkanar]

Hello,

I've installed the arm-archlinux img on my raspberry-pi, and i want use a ps3 controller in bluetooth mode on it. To work, it requires a build bluez library with a patch for the sixaxis support.

So, i've tried to build the bluez tarball 4.101 (from the kernel.org repository), but i encounter an error on the configure step :

the command

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', './configure --host=arm-linux')

print on the terminal :
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
[...some successful checks...]
checking for DBUS... no
configure: error: D-Bus >= 1.4 is required
')

And i can't build bluez.

==> I have the dbus package installed (and dbus-core and dbus-glib) in v1.6.2 but it seems invisible for the checking process

Have you an idea of why the dbus check fails ? (i'm a noob on build process, so it's possible i've missed something obvious)

Thanks

My guess is it is looking for an earlier version of dbus, or dbus headers that are not present.

I finally found the problem : pkg-config was not present on my system. I had installed one-by-one automake, autoconf, etc... almost all packages of the base-devel group (except pkg-config), which i just remember the existence. (shame on me)

So, it compiles, now.

In Ubuntu 12.04 the package libdbus-1-dev fixed it for me.
