gah, tollef uploaded a 0.28 in the meantime so that didn't work. I'll have to update my stuff. We'll here's the important bit in the meantime: Which doesn't default to including non-multiarched stuff, but explain how you can. I think in debian we are aiming for doing this the slow, correct way (by multiarching everything). Feel free to argue for enabling this by default (and having a comment about turning it off instead) Anyway, assuming no-one objects violently I propose to put this in pkg-config ASAP, as it's way better than the current situation. #! /bin/sh # pkg-config wrapper for cross-building # Sets pkg-config search path to search multiarch and historical cross-compiling paths. # If the user has already set PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR, believe it (even if empty): # it's documented to be an override if [ x"${PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR+set}" = x ]; then # GNU triplet for the compiler, e.g. i486-linux-gnu for Debian i386, # i686-linux-gnu for Ubuntu i386 basename="`basename "$0"`" triplet="${basename%-pkg-config}" # Normalized multiarch path if any, e.g. i386-linux-gnu for i386 multiarch="`dpkg-architecture -t"${triplet}" -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH 2>/dev/null`" PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="/usr/local/${triplet}/lib/pkgconfig" # For a native build we would also want to append /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig # at this point; but this is a cross-building script, so don't PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR:/usr/local/share/pkgconfig" if [ -n "$multiarch" ]; then PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="/usr/local/lib/${multiarch}/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR" PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR:/usr/lib/${multiarch}/pkgconfig" fi PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR:/usr/${triplet}/lib/pkgconfig" # For a native build we would also want to append /usr/lib/pkgconfig # at this point; but this is a cross-building script, so don't # If you want to allow use of un-multiarched -dev packages for crossing # (at the risk of finding build-arch stuff you didn't want, if not in a clean chroot) # Uncomment the next line: # PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR:/usr/lib/pkgconfig" PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR:/usr/share/pkgconfig" export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR fi exec pkg-config $@ Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Emdebian, Wookware, Balloonboard, ARM http://wookware.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
