Hi

I'm a noob to linux, but a professional sound egineer out there in real
life. I absolutely *HATE* (with a passion) winblows and refuse to pay a
billion dollar markup for a MAC. So here I am. I need to record in linux
using my Echoaudio Mia 24 sound card. I have d/led and installed the
alsa stuff for the card and i know it works. I ahve also d/led and
installed the jack audio stuff and have d/led the latest beta 3 ardour.
The problem is that I get this message on ./configure:

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for sndfile >= 1.0.0... Package sndfile was not found in the
pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `sndfile.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'sndfile' found
 
configure: error: Library requirements (sndfile >= 1.0.0) not met;
consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your
libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for soundtouch
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for libs

As I'm no Linux guru, I need some help getting past this and working
with Ardour! 

Thanks for your time and help in this matter!
