[tbox-l] libzvt and linc dependency on "old" pkgconfig package

[Markus A. <al...@de...>]

Dear Toolbox folks,

the pkg-config 0.19 RPM that has been made available in October 2006 is
obviously an update for the older pkgconfig 0.15 RPM.

There are some packages that already depend on the newer version 0.19
(like e.g. glib2-devel), so if one wants to install these, updating the
pkg-config/pkgconfig RPM is mandatory.

However, due to the naming change from "pkgconfig" to "pkg-config",
there are also some unsatisfied dependencies after that update, e.g.
with libzvt:


altmark@pdw7: altmark (23) $ rpm -V libzvt
Unsatisfied dependencies for libzvt-2.0.1-1: pkgconfig >= 0.15.0


Would it be possible to rebuild these packages with just the


Requires:       pkgconfig >= %{pkgconfig_version}


statement in the specfile changed to


Requires:       pkg-config >= %{pkgconfig_version}


so that this is in a consistent state again and there are no errors when
updating? Scanning through the specfiles showed that there are "just"
two packages, libzvt and linc, with this old dependency and no newer
version available:


altmark@altmark: SPECS (22) $ egrep -n "^Requires:[[:space:]]+pkgconfig" *
glib2-2.2.1-3.spec:34:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= 0.15.0
glib2-2.2.3-1.spec:35:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= 0.15.0
glib2-2.2.3-2.spec:35:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= 0.15.0
glib2-2.2.3-3.spec:35:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= 0.15.0
libIDL-0.8.0-1.spec:30:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= %{pkgconfig_version}
libIDL-0.8.2-1.spec:30:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= %{pkgconfig_version}
libzvt-2.0.1-1.spec:23:Requires:       pkgconfig >= %{pkgconfig_version}
linc-1.0.1-1.spec:32:Requires: 	pkgconfig >= %{pkgconfig_version}

altmark@altmark: SPECS (23) $ egrep -n "^Requires:[[:space:]]+pkg-config" *
glib2-2.8.1-3.spec:35:Requires: 	pkg-config >= 0.19
libIDL-0.8.6-2.spec:30:Requires: 	pkg-config >= %{pkgconfig_version}


Thanks!

Regards,
Markus
