Haikuports: mesa package should provide pkg-config information

(Original issue 106 created by KapiX on 2014-06-22T19:10:26.137732+00:00)

Getting 'glu' package from pkg-config is impossible due to 'gl' package being missing (it is required by 'glu').

Solution for now:

• put gl.pc in non-packaged/develop/lib/pkg-config
• export PKG_CONFIG_PATH

You should be able to do this just by adding the "fixPkgconfig" line.

I can't check if that works because python crashes on "import libxml2mod".

Issue #150 was marked as a duplicate of this issue.

added a pkgconfig file in 56a125142ab068c2235a2558402d89eea9dbed16

We can close this then, I think?

[KapiX]

Only if upstream doesn't provide gl.pc. If it does, then this is still a workaround.

[korli]

@KapiX well upstream provides a gl.pc.in, but it seems to only be installed when using configure/make. We are using the scons build, which doesn't seem to know about a pkgconfig file. Seeing that Arch Linux and Gentoo both use configure/make to build, it might make sense to switch. The haiku parts are probably not tested with make, so it's not so straightforward :) As you wrote, this is still a workaround.

[KapiX]

Hmm, in this case it might not be worth it. I'd say let's close this then.
Maybe another issue should be opened to investigate viability of switch to autotools.
