When you build gstreamer2-imx, then libimxdmabuffer should be in
PKGCONFIG_WHITELIST_TARGET. But please note, that
PKGCONFIG_WHITELIST_TARGET does not contain the ptxdist package names but
the .pc file names without the .pc suffix.
And the .pkgconfig of libimxdmabuffer should contain something. Is the file
empty or is it not generated at all? What's the output of:
find platform-<your-platform>/packages/libimxdmabuffer-<version>/ -name *.pc
Replace the path with the directory that is filled by libimxdmabuffer.
