pkgconfig(.pc) guildeline update proposal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ville asked for a clarification... here's what I propose:

# () explanations may be omitted in final draft.  opinions?

MUST: Packages containing pkgconfig(.pc) files MUST Requires: pkgconfig (for directory ownership and usability).

SHOULD: The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files depends on their usecase, and this is usually for development purposes, so SHOULD be placed in a -devel pkg. (A reasonable exception is that the main pkg itself is a devel tool not installed in a user runtime, e.g. gcc or gdb.)
