I would like to compile a short list, but it seems that there are
tricks to matching up the names right, such as config.log says
gtk+-2.0 where yum says gtk2.
configure actually uses the pkg-config program to find out information
about the libraries rather than the RPM's.
ala :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pkg-config --modversion libglade-2.0
2.5.1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls /usr/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc | wc -l
192
Can this be used somehow to give me the package names? When I take the
name given by config.log, and look here, this is what I see:
$ cat /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgoffice-0.4.pc
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=/usr
libdir=/usr/lib
includedir=/usr/include
Name: libGOffice
Description: G Office support library
Version: 0.4.3
Requires: glib-2.0 gobject-2.0 libgsf-1 libxml-2.0 gtk+-2.0 libglade-2.0
libgnomeprint-2.2 libart-2.0 cairo pangocairo
Libs: -L${libdir} -lgoffice-0
Libs.private: -lpcre
Cflags: -I${includedir}/libgoffice-0.4
GOffice_plugins_dir=${libdir}/goffice/0.4.3/plugins
But I don't exactly see anything obvious here that the package name is
goffice04. I see some clues, some good clues in fact, but is that the best?
And does pkg-config show stuff about packages that are *not* installed
yet? Because I think that is what I need.
