configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0) were not met:

No package 'glib-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables glib_CFLAGS
and glib_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

but i don't know why my visual effect can be enable..any idea guys?
