Description Daniel Espinosa 2012-03-01 01:55:36 UTC 
Resent version of Vala, 0.15.2, when installed from repository creates a wrong version. In my box libvala-0.16.pc file declare 0.15.0.98-2c800595

This an extract of the generated libvala-0.16.pc:

vapigen=${bindir}/vapigen-0.16
gen_introspect=${libdir}/vala-0.16/gen-introspect-0.16
vala_gen_introspect=${bindir}/vala-gen-introspect-0.16

Name: Vala
Description: The Vala compiler library
Version: 0.15.0.98-2c800595
Requires: glib-2.0 gobject-2.0
Libs: -L${libdir} -lvala-0.16
Cflags: -I${includedir}/vala-0.16

I hope to see 0.15.2.xxx version. This break libgda 5.1 because it checks for 0.15.1 version.

david@davidarch:~$ valac --version
valac: error while loading shared libraries: libvala-0.14.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
david@davidarch:~$ vala --version
No source file specified.

I just built vala 0.16 from source (building latest git, or vala-devel gives the same results), and I can't detect my vala compiler version.
Comment 2 Daniel Espinosa 2012-09-20 21:44:44 UTC 
Solved in latest release.
