Hi,
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort, we noticed that
meson was generates .pkgconfig files that are not reproducible.
For example, here is neatvnc's pkgconfig file:
Name: neatvnc
Description: A Neat VNC server library
Version: 0.7.0
-Requires.private: pixman-1, aml < 0.4.0, aml >= 0.3.0, zlib, libdrm,
libturbojpeg, gnutls, nettle, hogweed, gmp, gbm, libavcodec, libavfilter,
libavutil
+Requires.private: pixman-1, aml >= 0.3.0, aml < 0.4.0, zlib, libdrm,
libturbojpeg, gnutls, nettle, hogweed, gmp, gbm, libavcodec, libavfilter,
libavutil
Libs: -L${libdir} -lneatvnc
Libs.private: -lm
Cflags: -I${includedir}
A patch is attached that sorts the output, resulting in:
Requires.private: aml < 0.4.0, aml >= 0.3.0, gbm, gmp, gnutls, hogweed,
libavcodec, libavfilter, libavutil, libdrm, libturbojpeg, nettle, pixman-1, zlib
Regards,
