Bug#350549: python-dev: please add a pkgconfig file to this package

[Alberto Luaces]

I second that, specially since the output of python-config is in some cases 
redundant (-I/usr/include/python2.5) and even specifies compiler flags 
regarding a optimization mode that some users wouldn't want (-O2) or C++ 
incompatible flags (-Wstrict-prototype):

$python-config --cflags
-I/usr/include/python2.5 -I/usr/include/python2.5 -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG 
-g -fwrapv -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes

Bug#350549: python-dev: please add a pkgconfig file to this package

[Frederic-Emmanuel PICCA]

Package: python-dev
Version: 2.3.5-5
Severity: wishlist


Is there a special policy to configure a program linked with python
library usong the pkgconfig tool.

maybe a /usr/lib/pkgconfig/python.pc -> /usr/lib/pkgconfig/python2.3.pc

So it wil be easy to compile a libary or a program using the pkgconfig
program.

Have a nice day.
