During cross-compilation brain-damaged stuff like libxtrans just will not be picked up by compiler unless various pereversions are applied. Given this, xtrans.pc need to be installed to /usr/share, and hence there is no problem to install rest of arch-independent stuff to /usr/share. >> So far we have one tool (cross-compile) that relies on this >> architecture. CW> How would cross-compiling not work if xorg-macros.pc were installed in CW> libdir? Maybe this is the point I'm missing. Include list for cross-compilation does not include /usr/lib, it instead includes /usr/$arch/lib. All libraries need to be installed to /usr/$arch/lib anyway to be usable for cross-compilation, but headers and stuff like macros and source code do not. Please don't defend broken system, fix it instead. -- http://fossarchy.blogspot.com/
