https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529921 shows why encoding system library paths like /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 in pkgconfig files is a very bad idea indeed.
I'd propose to add a brp script that checks for -L%{libdir} in .pc files and fails the package if found. That way maintainers of a package that comes with .pc files would be forced to fix their packages. I'd even volunteer to write said brp script.
Why has the package to be changed? Wouldn't it be enough if said brp script simply patches the paths out? Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
