No, static libraries were not enabled. I am using only the -dev IPK, which has only the shared libraries. With this change, it is successfully building. Also, if it links to the static library, it will fail as I am not installing the static IPK.
In the latest pkgconf commit, it looks like Requires.private is needed for header inclusion also: https://github.com/pkgconf/pkgconf/commit/2d26db3a984e7a69cedc6274c22119de4bcf1b40 Cheers Sreejith On Tue, Jun 25, 2024 at 10:41 PM Richard Purdie < [email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, 2024-06-25 at 19:15 +0000, Sreejith Ravi via > lists.openembedded.org wrote: > > Currently, the package_do_pkgconfig() only handles the "Requires" key > > field from the .pc file and ignores the "Requires.private" field while > > generating the dev dependency chain.
