(This avoids false positive reports in some circumstances, such as a pair
of depends on e.g. foo-2.0 and 2.0.3, and also for more complicated forms
of version numbers.)
- Sort dependencies properly so that, e.g., 2.10 is considered newer than 2.8.
This is still a hack and might fail in some cases, but is hopefully much
better than before.
verifypc is a tool that sanity checks the dependencies of a package based on
the results of a successful build, assuming the package uses pkg-config to
detect dependencies.
verifypc will warn you if the configuration script requests an uninstalled
or unavailable package (not specified as a direct dependency) or if the
requested package does not match the version specification in the packages'
dependencies.
