pkg-config is looking in /usr/lib/pkg-config.

Try this :

[chema@sarados chema]$ pkg-config --debug
Scanning directory '/usr/lib/pkg-config'
Ignoring file '.' in search directory; not a .pc file

File 'ORBit.pc' appears to be a .pc file

(it is lookin in /usr/lib/pkg-config)

Bug in pkg-config 0.7.0

From: Chema C. <ch...@xi...> - 2001-07-10 05:11:07

Found another bug in pkg-config 0.7.0 (the source for
this pkg-config was fetched with the vicious-build-scripts so 
I don't know where it came from).

After installing libcapplet2 I get this error :

-------------
checking for pkg-config... (cached) /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for libcapplet2 libglade-gnome gdk_pixbuf bonobo_conf ...
Package libcapplet2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libcapplet2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libcapplet2' found
--------------

which looks like libcapplet2.pc was not installed, but it was.
If i as root link /usr/lib/pkgconfig to /usr/lib/pkg-config
it all works fine as can be shown here :

----------------------------
[root@sarados lib]# pkg-config --debug           
Cannot open directory '/usr/lib/pkg-config' in package search path: No
such file or directory
Must specify package names on the command line
[root@sarados lib]# ln -s pkgconfig/ pkg-config
[root@sarados lib]# cd pkg-config/
[root@sarados pkg-config]# pkg-config --debug                
Scanning directory '/usr/lib/pkg-config'
Ignoring file '.' in search directory; not a .pc file
Ignoring file '..' in search directory; not a .pc file
-----------------------------

Another little but blocker bug ;-). Why was this not caught before ?
Don't know, it might have been a bug in the tarball fethced from
gnome.org/~marting/....

Chema

Well, 0.6.0 didn't worked for us. So we now depend on 
0.7.0 from freedesktop.org.

There is no pkg-config 0.7. That's a fork by hp.

Bug in pkgconfig 0.7.0

From: Chema C. <ch...@xi...> - 2001-07-07 19:39:40

Running :
[chema@suzzy control-center]$ pkg-config --cflags gtkhtml

returns :

-DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H-DUNICODE_USE_SYSTEM_ICONV -I/usr/include
-I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include
-I/usr/lib/gnome-libs/include -I/usr/include/gnome-xml  

where :
-DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H-DUNICODE_USE_SYSTEM_ICONV
should be :
-DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H -DUNICODE_USE_SYSTEM_ICONV

We are now depending on pkg-config 0.7.0, if this is fixed in the
CVS version a patch will be appreciated.

Re: Problems with PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro.

From: Havoc P. <hp...@re...> - 2001-07-07 15:11:37

Hi,

I think you probably have an old pkg.m4 somewhere, that had a
mismatched backtick. The one in 0.7 should work.

My <stdio.h> has flockfile() with the same conditionals:

#if defined(_POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS) || defined(_REENTRANT)

#ifndef __SVR4_I386_ABI_L1__
#define getc_unlocked(fp)	_IO_getc(fp)
#define getchar_unlocked()	getc_unlocked(stdin)
#define putc_unlocked(x, fp)	_IO_putc(x,fp)
#define putchar_unlocked(x)	putc_unlocked(x, stdout)
#endif

extern void flockfile __P((FILE *));
...

However, I figure since it's only an extern declaration the autoconf
check will succeed without it (using an implicit declaration).
Whereas getc_unlocked is a macro, and if its declaration is missing,
things don't work.

If you don't want to define _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS for some
reason, you could perhaps check if flockfile is declared. For such
tests I've used the following macro:

dnl GPC_DEFINE(NAME)
dnl Define $1 in upper case
AC_DEFUN(GPC_DEFINE,[AC_DEFINE(translit($1, [a-z], [A-Z]))])

dnl The second parameter is used by make-acconfig-h.m4
AC_DEFUN(GPC_MSG_CHECKING,[AC_MSG_CHECKING([$1])])

dnl Checks for function declarations
dnl GPC_CHECK_FUNC_DECL(FUNC, HEADERS, HEADER_MSG)
dnl Check whether function $1 is declared in $2
AC_DEFUN(GPC_CHECK_FUNC_DECL,
  [ GPC_MSG_CHECKING(for $1 declaration in $3,if the $1 function is declared in $3)
    AC_CACHE_VAL(gpc_cv_decl_$1,
    [AC_TRY_COMPILE(
      [$2],
      [void (*tmp)() = (void (*)) $1;],
      gpc_cv_decl_$1=yes,
      gpc_cv_decl_$1=no)])
    AC_MSG_RESULT($gpc_cv_decl_$1)
    if test $gpc_cv_decl_$1 = yes; then
      GPC_DEFINE($1_DECLARED)
    fi
  ])

E.g.:

GPC_CHECK_FUNC_DECL(malloc, [#include <stdlib.h>], <stdlib.h>)

> Could you tell us exactly which version of libc and what distro

It was originally SuSE 5.2, but heavily changed, patched and
partially updated by me. The libc it 5.4.46 (AFAICR ;-).

Can we please put the ChangeLog back? Emacs will auto-format a
ChangeLog, it won't auto-format CVS stuff, and I don't want to wait on
a CVS command every time I want to grep ChangeLog. Also ChangeLog
should be in EXTRA_DIST so tarball recipients can see what changed.
cvs2cl.pl is not in CVS that I see, so I can't use it. And 'cvs log'
does not easily show changes for the whole directory, it just shows
changes file-by-file. Finally it is a standard convention to use
ChangeLog and doing something different is just gratuitous.

In Makefile.am, m4_SCRIPTS is wrong, it should be m4_DATA. I thought I
already changed this once? What is the problem you're trying to solve?
SCRIPTS is for things with the execute bit set. m4 macros are macros,
not scripts. There is no +x bit.

PKG_CHECK_CFLAG has no business in pkg.m4, neither does
PKG_ACLOCALFLAGS. PKG_CHECK_CFLAG should be in autoconf. Send them a
patch. PKG_ACLOCALFLAGS ditto. In the meantime a little cut-and-paste
won't hurt anyone, configure.in are full of that anyway. PKG_ should
be macros involving packages, not random-ass whatever we can think of.

PKG_CHECK_MODULES m4 macro is still checking for 0.7, but you've
shipped 0.6. Not going to work... The reason for 0.7 was to bump right
before release since some people were using CVS version. So this way
we catch potential issues. But if you want to go back to 0.6 for
aesthetics, you need to fix the m4 macro.

I had to dig through a diff to find all these changes, due to lack of
ChangeLog. Also, the log messages logged to CVS are in the wrong
format; which I'll add to the reasons ChangeLog should be used, people
always use lame CVS log messages in a lame format otherwise.

Finally, I need a release with this stuff not broken! Can we
re-release please? Or if you don't have time, give me the right access
to sourceforge and I'll do it.
</tangents>

Re: getc_unlocked(), why not try just sticking this #define at the top
of that file, release, see if problems still come up, if the issue
comes up again let's just remove flockfile() uses and
s/getc_unlocked/getc/g for the next release.
