Native pkgconfig not included

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig isn't included when building. This causes an error when trying to look for wayland stuff when I'm building my application.

My code errors out with:

Package wayland-client was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `wayland-client.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

On my system at least, this file is in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/wayland-client.pc

So maybe PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/${RUSTTARGET}/pkgconfig" would solve this issue?

Could you provide a link to the repo you have the issue with so we can test if this would fix it.

After testing I've found that the issue is not the PKG_CONFIG path the issue is that the wayland headers are not installed in the build container.
You need to add a pre-build script that installs the dependencies required by your sys crates:

  • wayland-sys = wayland-dev
  • smithay-client-toolkit = libxkbcommon-dev
    ...
#!/bin/bash

apk add wayland-dev libxkbcommon-dev

I don't get it. GitHub actions uses Ubuntu, and I run sudo apt install g++ pkg-config libx11-dev libasound2-dev libudev-dev libwayland-dev libxkbcommon-dev libwayland-client0 which should handle all dependencies.

When I try your solution, all I get is /entrypoint.sh: line 47: ./prebuild.sh: Permission denied
Why would apk work on Ubuntu?

Douile commented

The imagine this action uses is alpine. You need to make the prebuild script executable using chmod +x.

Yea, I've slowly been figuring that out. Can you please update your README to mention these facts? If it was mentioned there I don't think I would've been confused.
