It seems that they decided long ago to drop support for pkg-config
files. See
<https://github.com/opencv/opencv/issues/20269#event-4970006284> and
<https://github.com/opencv/opencv/issues/13154>
Their only response is "consider using cmake's `find_package()`", which
is not an option for me, and BTW not an option also in many other
important projects.
I talked to them and the agreed to accept patches if the pkg-config
files are generated automatically. Would you be interested to provide a
patch? There is some code in PCL for this you could borrow, maybe.
Hmmm, I'd like to, but I have zero idea of cmake (I guess they want to
autogenerate it with cmake), so I'm not sure I could do that.
What should we do about it? Maintain our pkg-config files in Debian?
I think that would be to big of a patch.
Yes. What is Fedora doing? Do you know?
Cheers Jochen
Cheers,
Alex
