glib-dev pkgconfig

[mahaase]

glib recipe doesn't work for compat toolchain correctly. glib-tools is there to provide the tools, but for compat a bindir is set. so the tools provided by glib-tools package will not selected.

/bin/bash: line 1: /home/superq/ws/fdt.v2/dev/dist/libs/glib-dev/x86_64-bob_compat-linux-gnu/2/workspace/usr/bin/glib-mkenums: No such file or directory

compat:

bindir=${prefix}/bin
glib_genmarshal=${bindir}/glib-genmarshal
gobject_query=${bindir}/gobject-query
glib_mkenums=${bindir}/glib-mkenums

for cross-toolchain, the pkgconfig file looks like this, this would work in combination with glib-tools:

cross:

glib_genmarshal=glib-genmarshal
gobject_query=gobject-query
glib_mkenums=glib-mkenums

maybe we should not make an explicit package for tools, but install the tools in dev package?!

mesonPackageDev "$1" "/usr/lib/glib-2.0/***" "/usr/bin/***"

or both? :)

I'm afraid I do not fully understand the problem. Could you provide some minimal recipe example that show the issue?

[mahaase]

yep.

feature-branch for graphviz:
#75

add it e.g. here:

Ok, I now see the problem. I'm not sure yet who to blame here. But installing the tools in the -dev package is not the solution. If we cross compile the tools won't run...

[mahaase]

I did not found any official interface to handle this problem e.g. by configuration.
So i would recommend to do this to fix the *.pc files in dev-package:

for i in $(find . -iname "*.pc") ; do
    sed -i 's/\${bindir}\///g' $i
done

[jkloetzke]

Looks like buildroot does the same. I would also recommend to do it only for the glib-2.0.pc and gio-2.0.pc files specifically without the find call. We already know the files that need patching.
