I don't care much, but I still find not having to use pkg-config somewhat more convenient in a cross-compilation environment where you don't want to install all dependencies just to make it work with pkg-config (or alternatively manually hack those files). There is also a (minority) of projects with pkg-config files that cause undesirable side-effects which can hide errors. >From my system: 1) SDL and apr add -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 2) fuse adds -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 3) xorg-server adds -fvisibility=hidden I admit that it looks surprisingly good nowadays though. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
