Description netflow 2012-09-02 01:38:57 UTC 
Autoconf reports actually installed packages as missing on 64 bit systems.  X11 is an example.

the issue is that the .pc files for these packages are being installed in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig and autoconf is only looking in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ for them.  Simply creating symlinks from the x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig dir into the /usr/lib/pkgconfig dir solves this problem
