We could probably do it on a going-forward basis, but per usual we’d end up with all the old code *plus* the pkgconfig code, so it wouldn’t really “clean up” anything. There are autoconf macros already in configure.ac doing pkgconfig stuff on other deps, so not too too hard of an add. > It’s always annoying when I try to do it that I have to explicitly specify > the geos-config file in PostGIS when in other cases, we can read the > pkg-config and have in fact standardized on that for other dependencies we > use. > > I’ve added PostGIS dev to this since well we seem to be talking about PostGIS > now. I’m honestly at a bit of a loss as to whether installing with an rpath and expecting linking software to set an appropriate search path is the right thing, or locking in a fixed installation location is the right thing. Certainly the latter results in less nonsense in the postgis build. But it broke proj, which had some tests that expected to be able to manually move an installation post-install.
