Public bug reported: Installing package gnome-software-dev doesn't satisfy all of dependencies needed for development.
After installing it there are still missing libraries needed for compilation of basic examples provided by gnome (https://developer.gnome.org/gnome-software/stable/plugins.html - the first example from here) ``` ~/plugin$ gcc -shared -o libgs_plugin_example.so gs-plugin-example.c -fPIC `pkg-config --libs --cflags gnome-software` -DI_KNOW_THE_GNOME_SOFTWARE_API_IS_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE && sudo cp libgs_plugin_example.so `pkg-config gnome-software --variable=plugindir` Package json-glib-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `json-glib-1.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'json-glib-1.0', required by 'gnome-software', not found gs-plugin-example.c:5:10: fatal error: gnome-software.h: No such file or directory 5 | #include <gnome-software.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. ``` As a reference list of packages required by Fedora version of this package could is worth checking: https://fedora.pkgs.org/33/fedora- updates-x86_64/gnome-software-devel-3.38.1-1.fc33.x86_64.rpm.html ** Affects: gnome-software (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1919043 Title: gnome-software-dev misses dependencies required for development To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1919043/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
