[SOLVED] Compiling a mrss program

I am trying to compile a program that includes (lib)mrss
When I try to compile:

[matio@myhost clutterC]$ gcc rssReader.c -o rssReader `pkg-config clutter-1.0 --cflags --libs`
In file included from rssReader.c:3:
/usr/local/include/mrss.h:23:27: error: libxml/parser.h: No such file or directory


[matio@myhost clutterC]$ gcc rssReader.c -o rssReader `pkg-config clutter-1.0 --cflags --libs` `pkg-config libmrss --cflags --libs`
Package libmrss was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libmrss.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libmrss' found
In file included from rssReader.c:3:
/usr/local/include/mrss.h:23:27: error: libxml/parser.h: No such file or directory

How can I add the library?

Re: [SOLVED] Compiling a mrss program

Ensure you have libxml2 installed and then pass "-I/usr/include/libxml2" to gcc.  And the "pkg-config libmrss" in backticks doesn't look like it's doing anything.

FYI, everything recognised by pkgconfig will be in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/
