[lug] Odd linking errors

That's meant for applications linking with glib, which I am not doing. Glib
is part of the GTK+ set of libraries, IIRC. And this is very much a CLI
application.

glib-config (and other similar helper apps) are there to provide the proper
include and library paths, so that it can be installed anywhere whithout
breaking other, dependent source packages.

I'm pretty much a newbie to Linux development, but like gnome, there is a 
glib-config script that you can execute like:

gcc -c x.c `glib-config --cflags --libs whateverlibs`
