wxGTK error (Audacity)

[Josef Oswald <oswald@chello.at>]

Well, can't help it I have to ask this question here, as I can't find
a solution...

I need to install wxGTK for audacity.
The problem with audacity is that when I want to save a file, I can't
see the text I type. When I mark the commando-line in Audacity I can
see the text.

I installed audacity the Debian way: apt-get install audacity.

since the above problem is rather annoying I went ahead and installed a
new version of GTK+-2.0.2 in /my/path/

to install the necessary packages I set: 

CPPFLAGS="-I/my/path/include"
LDFLAGS="-L/my/path/lib"
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/my/path/lib/pkgconfig"
export CPPFLAGS LDFLAGS PKG_CONFIG_PATH

as well as:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/my/path/lib"
PATH="/my/path/bin:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH
     
now the only package that gives me a hard time is wxGTK-2-2.7

gtk-config --libs still points to: 
-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule
-lglib -ldl -lXext -lX11 -lm

instead to /my/path

according to wxGTK README

* The most simple errors
------------------------

configure reports, that you don't have GTK 1.2 installed although you are 
very sure you have. Well, you have installed it, but you also have another 
version of the GTK installed, which you may need to remove including other 
versions of glib (and its headers). Also, look for the PATH variable and check 
if it includes the path to the correct gtk-config! The check your LDPATH if it 
points to the correct library. There is no way to compile wxGTK if configure 
doesn't pass this test as all this test does is compile and link a GTK program.

Now I removed all glib gtk directorys I fond in /user/local/lib
(where should the headers be I have also no clue)

next in /etc/ld.so.conf
I commented out 
/usr/local/lib
and included
/my/path

so I am at a loss now what i should do next....

any pointers are appreciated.

thanks :-)

The box said Windows, NT or better, so I installed Linux :-)
