Guys I need help I am installing efax-gtk but I get this errors uring ./configure

must be installed; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries
are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them
I tried downloading the c++-gtk-utils from here http://cxx-gtk-utils.sourceforge.net/ and using ./configure-gtk2 and do a make install but I still get the same errors on efax ./configure
How do I check if my modem is properly installed?
My modem is internal PCI
I have configured efax-gtk but I can't access the modem. both ttyS0 and ttyS1. it says no response from modem.
using dmesg | grep tty gives: [ 0.000000] console [tty0] enabled [ 0.719681] 00:08: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A [ 0.740412] 0000:00:16.3: ttyS1 at I/O 0xf0a0 (irq = 17) is a 16550A
and using lspci -nn:
03:00.0 Communication controller [0780]: Conexant Systems, Inc. SoftV92 SpeakerPhone SoftRing Modem with SmartSP [14f1:2f30] (rev 01)
Installing RPM from different distros allows me to install it using yum localinstall but efax-gtk gives error or permission denied on ttyS0 so I gave it chmod 777 but after that it gives
efax-0.9a: 16:52:07 Error: sync: modem not responding
efax-0.9a: 16:52:07 finished - no response from modem

The error is the one mentioned above. You need to install
c++-gtk-utils. Since you mention below that you have installed another
binary, you may only need to install the devel library.

A soft modem will not be at /dev/ttyS (that is for genuine 16550A
devices). A Conexant modem might be at something like /dev/ttyHSF0. It
is for you to find out where your soft modem resides on the system. A
good start is to look at /dev/tty and /dev/HSF* and see if it reveals
anything.

Took me half day to get Efax-gtk installed on CentOS 7 x64.
I am very new to Linux. You must forgive me for I am using incorrect words/syntax or how to explain this.
Main reason that it does not find c++-gtk-utils packages because CentOS 7 x64 PATH for pkgconfig is at /usr/lib64/pkgconfig.
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib64/pkgconfig
You may need to install libtiff-devel for tiffio.h error at ./configure and export PATH as well.
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/include
If efax-gtk complains about missing libcxx-gtk-utils when running by command line, please:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
Thanks,
Frank C.

How distributions deal with the installation of third party libraries
and programs is a little confusing for newcomers. Yours (CentOS)
appears to make no provision for them at all, hence your difficulties.
The first thing to note is that none of this is something that efax-gtk
or c++-gtk-utils can deal with. By default, as is conventional these
install themselves in the /usr/local prefix, and c++-gtk-utils by
default installs its library files in /usr/local/lib. You can pick
something different by passing configure a different prefix using the
--prefix option, and by passing a different library location using the
--libdir option.
So if you wanted the c++-gtk-utils library files in /usr/local/lib64
instead of /usr/local/lib, you could do this:
./configure --libdir=/usr/local/lib64
If you wanted the library installed in, say, the /opt prefix, you could
do this:
./configure --prefix=/opt --libdir=/opt/lib64
As I say, it seems that your CentOS installation is configured only to
find and load libraries and programs installed in the /usr prefix. You
need to set it up so that it also looks in the /usr/local prefix (or
whatever other prefix in which you choose to install your third party
programs). I do not know CentOS, but there are probably files
in /etc/profile.d which are used to set up PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH,
which need to be set to include /usr/local/bin
and /usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig respectively.
To load shared libraries in /usr/local/lib64 automatically instead of
having to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, you need to include /usr/local/lib64 in
your /etc/ld.so.conf file.

I dont have tty/HSF* I have tty0-tty63 and ttyS0-S3
So does your softmodem work under linux at all? Do you get anything
out of it if you interrogate it with minicom for example?
It needs a driver and it needs to be represented by a device in /dev.
That is a linux issue rather than a efax-gtk issue. efax-gtk assumes
that you have a working modem.

I dont have ttyHSF* I have tty0-tty63 and ttyS0-S3
Which devel and binary?
