B commented on AVRO-2989:
-------------------------
https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/1020
> libsnappy has no pkg-config file
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-2989
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2989
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: c
> Reporter: B
> Priority: Minor
>
> Google explicitly is not supporting pkg-config:
> [https://github.com/google/snappy/pull/86]
> But CMakeLists.txt does this:
> {code:java}
> set(SNAPPY_PKG libsnappy)
> {code}
> And later SNAPPY_PKG is what ends up in the pkg-config `Requires` section.
> The end result is that `pkg-config --exists` will always fail, since the
> Require'd package is (almost never) around, unless package managers or users
> went and manually added one.
> Note that this (softly) requires
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2987 to be fixed first – without
> that fix, the whole Requires: section isn't really working in the first place.
