The solution is to tell *upstream* how to build and ship .pc files with |
| 6 |
their build system. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
If we start shipping .pc files no one else has, projects that use such |
| 9 |
libraries will have only 2 choices: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
- check the .pc file and use whatever fallback code they had before to |
| 12 |
find the correct library paths and options. |
| 13 |
- change nothing and keep their current code |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Either way, we'll be stuck maintaining .pc files no one will be using. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Please convince upstreams stuck in the middle ages that .pc files are a |
| 18 |
Good Thing™ that make everybody's lives easier. |
