The way I see it is that this can't be fixed in the current fields without breaking the expected behavior. So, my plan is to get a version 1 spec out that describes the exact semantics pkg-config has now. Then, I plan on introducing variants for Requires - module(Cflags) and module(Libs). This would allow you to narrow what you want to gather on module collection. To fix this bug, by specifying "Requires.private: foo(Libs)", pkg-config would be allowed to completely drop the need for foo.pc in the typical shared case because you've informed it that you do not need the Cflags.
Unfortunately, it's been a busy year for me and I haven't had a ton of time to work on pkg-config. I did prototype the above and it worked well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336634 Title: libxxf86vm-dev should depend on libxext-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pkg-config/+bug/336634/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
