This is true for the fast majority of cases. Specially where there is only one provider of pkgconfig(foo). But sometime there is a need for a compat library and then I don't know if my package may uses the main library of the compat one. pkgconfig(foo) will pick one or the other, but using the package name is more deterministic to me. -- - Nicolas (kwizart) _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
