pkgsrc/devel/pkg-config/DESCR

pkg-config is a system for managing library compile/link flags that
works with automake and autoconf.  It replaces the ubiquitous
*-config scripts you may have seen with a single tool.

Despite its name, this project is not related to the NetBSD package
system!
Import pkg-config-0.19, updated version of devel/pkgconfig. News: 2005-07-16 Tollef Fog Heen * configure.in: Release 0.19 2005-07-15 Tollef Fog Heen * pkg.c (package_get_var): Make sure to g_strdup all the return values and not return some values which should not be freed and some which should. Yay valgrind. Freedesktop #3682 * configure.in: Fix default search path to be pkgconfig rather than pkg-config again. Freedesktop #3662 * pkg.m4: Add a missing AC_MSG_RESULT. Thanks to Gary Kramlich for noticing this and harassing me to fix it. 2005-06-29 Tollef Fog Heen * configure.in: Release 0.18.1 * pkg.m4: Brown bag fix. pkg_failed was always set to “untried”. Debian #316181. 2005-06-27 Tollef Fog Heen * configure.in: Rename to pkg-config. pkg-config 0.18 The inter-library dependencies check was too tight and caused problems if one used the --no-undefined flag to libtool on Solaris (since it there expands to -Wl,-z,defs which disallows undefined symbols). Add a new name to .pc files: Libs.private which will not be listed in the output of --libs unless --static is also given. Private libraries are libraries which are needed in the case of static linking or on platforms not supporting inter-library dependencies. They are not supposed to be used for libraries which are exposed through the library in question. An example of an exposed library is GTK+ exposing Glib. A common example of a private library is libm. Generally, if include another library's headers in your own, it's a public dependency and not a private one. Thanks a lot to James Henstridge for both the bug and the following discussion. 2005-07-21 18:22:42 +02:00			`pkg-config is a system for managing library compile/link flags that`
