I can not belive it!!! I had almost the same problem, example: pkg-config --modversion gdk-2.0 delivered a message that pkg-config is unable to find gdk-2.0.pc in the search path PKG_CONFIG_PATH ... although the right path was included there! After examing the output of "pkg-config --debug --cflags gtk+-2.0" I wondered that it searches for gtk+-2.0.pc on an alternative path starting with "c:\...", so I reviewed my definidion of PKG_CONFIG_PATH and defined everywhere fully-qualified paths, each one starting with drive letter "c:\mydirs\..\pkgconfig". For the first this also did not funtion, so I seperated the paths not with ':' but with semicolons ';' and enclosed the whole string for PKG_CONFIG_PATH in "..." !!! This functioned finally, and pkg-config works now! So to everyone trying to investigate into pkg-config and cygwin ... forget this shit and do your work seriously in a real unix/linux environment! cheers! -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
