pkg-config 0.26 uses glib2 and does not ship glib1 anymore. And since LFS/BLFS tends to use latest stuff, glib 2.32 requires python for gdbus stuff and libffi for some other stuff ... Do note that pkg-config 0.25 can be still built flawlessly. It can be installed in temporary system, then just symlink pkg.m4 from /tools/share/aclocal into /usr/share/aclocal and you should be good. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
