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)
