Package: pkg-config
Version: 0.26-1
Severity: important
My understanding of that option is that the value of the variable 'libdir'
in the:
/usr/lib/<arch>-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/lib<library>.pc
should be returned. What I get instead, is a SPACE character. It is,
IMO, crucial that the option produces expected results. Some Makefiles
can benefit/depend on that ;) Now, the current behaviour makes the option
useless. For example:
$ printf '%s' "$(pkg-config --libs-only-L libdivecomputer)" | hexdump
-Cv
00000000 20 | |
00000001
Expected is either:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
or:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
Makefile lines like:
libdc-usr := $(wildcard /usr/lib/*/libdivecomputer.a)
libdc-usr64 := $(wildcard /usr/lib64/libdivecomputer.a)
are unsustainable. My understanding is that this:
libdc-usr := $$(pkg-config --libs-only-L
libdivecomputer)/libdivecomputer.a
may. Thoughts?
