Description Steve Baker 2003-04-27 06:27:46 UTC 
This patch is mostly doing things like this:
-Libs: ${libdir}/gst/libgstreamer-@GST_MAJORMINOR@.la
+Libs: -L${libdir}/gst -lgstreamer-@GST_MAJORMINOR@

in all of the *-uninstalled.pc.in files.

Without this patch, gst-player wouldn't build because of some strange error
with looking for libgstcontrol in /foo/gstreamer/libs/gst/control/.libs/.libs

Without this patch totem wouldn't build, claiming that the .la file wasn't
a valid file.

With this patch, gst-player builds fine but totem still doesn't build,
claiming it can't find libgstplay even though it seems to be specified
correctly.

Tested - works for me (in 0.6.x). Imo this can be applied, if it fixes
something.

(However, I'm probably not the only one with opinions on this - anyone
against?)
Comment 4 Thomas Vander Stichele 2003-05-04 20:30:06 UTC 
Yeah, me.

I had similar issues and fixed it the right way AFAIK by fixing the
uninstalled .pc files.  Steve, can you recheckout and let me know if
it works now or not.  If it doesn't, I'll help fix it, but it now
works for both me and wim to run uninstalled.
Comment 5 Thomas Vander Stichele 2003-05-11 18:07:34 UTC 
Can you comment on the workingness ? So I can close this bug.
Comment 6 Thomas Vander Stichele 2003-06-05 22:51:18 UTC 
really, come on, please comment :) I'll be forced to close otherwise

(btw, have been running with uninstalled everything both 0.6 and HEAD
for over a month now)
Comment 7 Steve Baker 2003-06-06 07:43:02 UTC 
Sorry, I've been out of the loop. Can you also build Totem CVS against
uninstalled GStreamer?
Comment 8 Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller 2003-07-23 11:50:55 UTC 
Is this ready to be closed?
Comment 9 Ronald Bultje 2003-07-23 12:40:40 UTC 
Yes.
