I want to build mod_gnutls. The problem: CentOS' version of GNUTLS is too old to link against, so I compiled and installed GNUTLS from source and put it into /opt where it doesn't hurt the already installed GNUTLS. Now I have trouble linking against this version as the autoconf buildchain in mod_gnutls does not find the newer version.
checking for libgnutls - version >= 2.4.0... no

I don't understand this. I already set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH to /opt/lib/pkgconfig (according to pkg-config manpage) but that doesn't work.
What's the easiest way to make mod_gnutls link against GNUTLS as installed in /opt/lib?
thanks,
