Patch to add libdir in pygobject PC file (402 bytes, patch) 2007-05-02 10:03 UTC, Luca Ferretti	none	Details \| Review

Description Luca Ferretti 2007-05-02 09:58:23 UTC

Configuring the gnome-python module on my jhbuild sandbox (targeting gnome-2.20) I've this error message:

>>>
checking for PYGTK... configure: error: Package requirements (pygtk-2.0 >= 2.10.3) were not met:

Variable 'libdir' not defined in '/opt/gnome2/lib/pkgconfig/pygobject-2.0.pc'

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PYGTK_CFLAGS
and PYGTK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
>>>

I suspect it's related with the line
       Libs: -L${libdir} @FFI_LIBS@
recently added to pygobject-2.0.pc file (see [1]). The "libdir" key is missing in this file.
