Right. So set PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/arm-linux/lib/pkgconfig.
I certainly agree that'd do it. Not sure that Russell does yet, though.
That is what i currently do.
Well, I guess we were in violent agreement, then.
One caveat, though: the manpage says
PKG_CONFIG_PATH
A colon-separated (on Windows, semicolon-separated) list of
directories to search for .pc files. The default directory will
always be searched after searching the path; the default is lib-
dir/pkgconfig where libdir is the libdir where pkg-config was
installed.
What happens if you don't have the library in question installed
in PKG_CONFIG_PATH? pkg-config will silently search /usr/lib/pkgconfig,
and possibly grab the wrong version of the library. If you're
unlucky, the library will link, but the resulting program won't run.
One more little reason, perhaps, to have a separate copy of pkg-config
per installed userland.
