pkg-config 0.26
===
- Build system fixes
- More tests
- pkg.m4 fixups which makes autoconf 2.66 happier.
- Drop support for legacy -config scripts. Those should already be
gone and cause problems in cross-compilation environments.
- Drop embedded glib
- Fix up pkg.m4 to handle the case of --exists working and --cflags
or --libs failing.
- Various documentation updates
- Allow $() through without escaping it.
- Add --with-system-include-path instead of hard-coding
/usr/include.
pkg-config 0.25
===
- 0.24 included a too strict whitespace/shell metacharacter filter
leading to some legal characters like = and : being escaped in the
output. This has been fixed.
- when building with newer and external libpopt, it would be confused
over being asked to split an empty string, leading to errors with
packages that included empty fields in their .pc files.
- Make the COPYING file explicitly GPLv2. The COPYING file in 0.24
was inadvertently GPLv3 rather than the correct GPLv2.
- Minor changes to documentation
pkg-config 0.24
===
- Fix up bug in PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT handling which mangled non-I and
non-L arguments
- Put /usr/lib/pkgconfig and /usr/share/pkgconfig into the default
search path when no prefix is passed to configure.
- Portability fixes for Windows and NetBSD
- Various man page updates
- Add logging support to log how pkg-config is being called.
- Skip Requires.private unless we need them for Cflags
- Add a variable, pc_path to the compiled-in pkg-config package that
you can query for the compiled-in PKG_CONFIG_PC_PATH.
- Various updates to pkg.m4.
- Update rpmvercmp with bugfixes from upstream.
- Add introductory guide to pkg-config, thanks to Dan Nicholson for
the patch.
- Add listing of variables in a package
- Make it possible to use external popt.
- Add --print-provides and --print-requires(-private) options
- Add support for paths containing whitespace and shell metacharacters
pkg-config 0.23
===
- Add support for setting sysroot through PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR in
the environment.
- Update included glib to 1.2.10.
- Other minor fixes, including a segfault.
pkg-config 0.22
===
- Make Requires.private a whole lot more useful by traversing the
whole tree, not just the top-level, for Cflags.
- Add support for using the system glib.
- Update URL to pkg-config website
- Fix some win32 problems.
- Other minor fixes.
pkg-config 0.21
===
- Fix some cosmetic output from pkg.m4
- Fix build problems with !gcc due to always passing -Wall
- Documentation fixes
- We now always add the Cflags from packages we depend on, whether
they are public or private dependencies. The discussion surrouding
this change can be found in http://bugs.debian.org/340904 .
- Add internal pkg-config package which can be queried for version
number and other information.
pkg-config 0.20
===
- Fix test suite to work on Solaris. Yay non-POSIX /bin/sh :-(
- Fix segfault on --help with gcc4. Fix segfault on bigendian arches
in some cases.
- Win32 fixes
- Add --short-errors, now used by pkg.m4 if available. This gives a
better error message if some libraries can't be found.
pkg-config 0.19
===
- Fix a segfault
- Fix default search path
- Fix cosmetic bug in pkg.m4 where AC_MSG_RESULT wasn't called in
some cases.
pkg-config 0.18.1
===
- Fix up pkg.m4 to not end up with pkg_failed=untried always.
pkg-config 0.18
===
- The inter-library dependencies check was too tight and caused
problems if one used the --no-undefined flag to libtool on Solaris
(since it there expands to -Wl,-z,defs which disallows undefined
symbols). Add a new name to .pc files: Libs.private which will not
be listed in the output of --libs unless --static is also given.
Private libraries are libraries which are needed in the case of
static linking or on platforms not supporting inter-library
dependencies. They are not supposed to be used for libraries which
are exposed through the library in question. An example of an
exposed library is GTK+ exposing Glib. A common example of a private
library is libm.
Generally, if include another library's headers in your own, it's a
public dependency and not a private one.
Thanks a lot to James Henstridge for both the bug and the following
discussion.
pkg-config 0.17.2
===
- Don't go into an infinite loop allocating more and more memory when
the same name is specified twice on the command line and we're in
"direct dependencies only"-mode.
pkg-config 0.17.1
===
- Now actually sets CFLAGS and LIBS instead of trying to set those in
a subshell. (Only affects if you've autoreconfiscated with 0.17)
- Fix detection of inter-library dependencies.
pkg-config 0.17
===
- Evaluate second argument to PKG_CHECK_MODULES again
- Portability fixes (MacOS, BeOS, Cygwin)
- Handle inter-library dependencies and assume those are in place if
the platform supports them. Disable with --enable-indirect-deps.
- Add initial test framework
- Build fixes (make distcheck now works)
pkg-config 0.16
===
- Use a search path, rather than a single default directory.
- Fix a bunch of bugs in glib by backporting
- More man page fixes
- Lots of small fixes and cleanups over the place.
- pkg-config now grabs _PKG_* and PKG_*, so don't use variables
starting with that in any configure scripts.
pkg-config 0.15
===
- add PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR for cross-compiling (David Schleef)
- add --libs-only-other/--cflags-only-other (Zack Rusin)
- apply man page fixes (Pter Breitenlohner)
- C portability fix (David Robins)
- fix to win32 build (Tor Lillqvist)
