Bug#550460: Ships /usr/lib/pkgconfig/xproto.pc but is arch: all
Package: x11proto-core
Version: 7.0.15-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi
x11proto-core-dev is arch: all but ships an arch-specific pathname
(/usr/lib/pkgconfig/xproto.pc).
This is notably a problem when cross-compiling since dpkg-buildpackage
sets PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to
/usr/$targetgnusystem/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/share/pkgconfig/ and hence
doesn't see this .pc file, but it can't be cross-build since it's arch:
all.
I guess the .pc file should really be in /usr/share/pkgconfig.
NB: thanks for Colin Watson for diagnosing this issue.
Thanks,
