I doubt that got installed over the old libnice in
/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw. You'll need to use --prefix= or 
'make install DESTDIR=...' to make that happen. Or if you really 
*want* it installed elsewhere so it doesn't stomp on the real package, 
you'll need to have that directory first in PKG_CONFIG_PATH when you 
build farstream. And pidgin.

Your best bet is to download the existing SuSE package for mingw32-
libnice, bump the version number, rebuild that and install it. Then 
you'll have it built *precisely* the same way as the existing one.
