- libffi

It's installed. The configure script doesn't detect it. It was installed via Yast from the openSuSE site, so I would hope the sentence, "Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix." does not apply.

$ find /usr/lib* /usr/local/lib* -name 'libffi.*' /usr/lib/libffi.so.4.0.1 /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libffi.so.4.0.1.debug /usr/lib/libffi.so /usr/lib/libffi.so.4 /usr/lib/libffi.a /usr/lib64/libffi.so.4.0.1 /usr/lib64/libffi.so /usr/lib64/libffi.so.4 /usr/lib64/libffi.a

File a bug with OpenSuSE, /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libffi.pc should be contained in the same package as the .so and .a files; apparently their package is incomplete. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to use pkgconfig for libffi package. Actual Results: No results. Expected Results: packaging info for libffi. Development scripts expect the libffi's .pc file to be installed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
