A lot of Thanks for your help, I have made the changes sugested and now I found in the Makefile that the route to the directories are as spected '/usr/share/glade3/catalogs'
But now please help me! I have configure.in and glade/Makefile.am, the configure process creates the Makefile.in and Makefile in the glade dir, but when I call make the library isn't created... Could you help me? 2006/10/3, David Nečas (Yeti) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > On Mon, Oct 02, 2006 at 06:01:30PM -0500, Daniel Espinosa wrote: > > Could any help me on how to get a variable value in a .pc file? > > > > I have the following values in the glade-3.pc file: > > > > catalogdir=${prefix}/share/glade3/catalogs > > pixmapdir=${prefix}/share/glade3/pixmaps > > moduledir=${exec_prefix}/lib/glade3/modules > > > > I need this variables in order to install the compiled and support files > in > > the correct plase to allow glade3 to find them. > > This makes sense. > > > At moment I try in configure.in to use the following sentences: > > > > AC_SUBST(GLADE3_PIXMAP_DIR, '[$(shell pkg-config > --variable=pixmapdir > > glade-3)]') > > AC_SUBST(GLADE3_MODULES_DIR, '[$(shell pkg-config > --variable=moduledir > > glade-3)]') > > AC_SUBST(GLADE3_CATALOG_DIR, '[$(shell pkg-config > --variable=catalogdir > > glade-3)]') > > But this doesn't.
