Hi,

I just downloaded the dnsmasq latest version from GIT and facing the below error when i compile.
Please suggest to resolve this.

hadmin at ICSCHELAP1003:~/Mari$ git clone https://github.com/guns/dnsmasq

root at ICSCHELAP1003:/home/hadmin/Mari/dnsmasq# make install

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libidn.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

Do i have to build the libidn first, if yes from where to compile ?

Here is my system config:
Ubuntu 14.04 kernel version - 3.13.0-32-generic
 H/w:
 Intel core - i3-4030U CPU @ 1.90GHz * 4
 Memory - 3.8GB
 OS type - 64 bit

Thanks,
Mari.
