Just to confirm, the directory is: /usr/share/pkgconfig/ >All mine are in /usr/lib64/pkgconfig, except for a few >things I had to install manually and there is only the one I said in >that directory. Then you have a non-standard environment. >I am wondering if you are making too many assumptions about where >things are and what they are, don't assume everything is like Debian >or Ubuntu. And just where have I made such an assumption? I'm asking pkg-config where things should be put. That's doing it correctly. Are you suggesting that we don't trust pkg-config? By the way: I myself don't even use Debian or any of its derrivatives. Why did you assume that I do? >I know its difficult, but I wonder if things like arch, >fedora, and other distributions put everything where you might expect >it to be. If what's difficult? Concluding that pkg-config returns bad data? That decision, at least for me, isn't difficult - it's impossible! It's the responsibility of a distribution to define these things correctly. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
