Public bug reported: All the pcl_foo-1.8.pc pkg-config files that themselves depend on pcl_features-1.8 aren't usable currently due to pcl_features-1.8 referencing a non-existent pcl_2d-1.8 dependency, which I believe is something that used to exist in older version of pcl.
Issue seen with ubuntu:zenial Docker image in the libpcl-dev package libpcl-dev version: libpcl-dev: Installed: 1.8.0+dfsg1-4ubuntu4.17.04.1 Candidate: 1.8.0+dfsg1-4ubuntu4.17.04.1 Version table: *** 1.8.0+dfsg1-4ubuntu4.17.04.1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty-updates/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.8.0+dfsg1-4ubuntu4 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty/universe amd64 Packages Reproduce with: apt-get install libpcl-dev pkg-config --cflags pcl_features-1.8 results in: Package pcl_2d-1.8 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `pcl_2d-1.8.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'pcl_2d-1.8', required by 'pcl_features-1.8', not found Workaround: sudo sed -i 's/pcl_2d-1.8//' /usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/pkgconfig/pcl_features-1.8.pc Final, expected, output running `pkg-config --cflags pcl_features-1.8` with workaround: -I/usr/include/pcl-1.8 ** Affects: pcl (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/1738902 Title: pcl_features-1.8.pc pkg-config file dep on missing pcl_2d-1.8 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcl/+bug/1738902/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
