I've posted on the other overlinking thread about pkgconfig and got corrected that Requires.private is not just for static linking. Short version: Requires = pulls in link and cflags (include paths etc) Requires.private = pulls in cflags and (libs if --static) Requires.internal = pulls in libs only with --static Long version can be found in this freedesktop bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105572 (We, fedora, use pkgconf that already has this implemented in 1.5.0 that is in f29/rawhide; the original freedesktop pkgconfig has not yet but would seem to agree on principle) So going by the same rule, Requires.private means headers from these libs can be used... and headers are in -devel packages, so they would need to be pulled as they currently are. -- Dominique Martinet _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/AGIYXJYHNBOWARINON4LK2X3SU6CQQBE/
