Russell,

in order to see whether there is a defect in mc's configure or
something is still wrong with PKG_CONFIG_PATH, try run following in a
terminal:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=<PATH TO YOUR GLIB INSTALL PREFIX>/lib/pkgconfig pkg-config glib-2.0 --modversion

You should see:
2.46.2

If not, PKG_CONFIG_PATH is still not properly setup. You can search for
glib-2.0.pc, like:

find / -name glib-2.0.pc

and then adjust PKG_CONFIG_PATH to point to the directory, containing
it.

Regards,
Andrey
