This was discussed not too long ago, and it appears that more and more packages are moving to /usr/share/pkgconfig for installation of .pc files. This directory is a standard directory searched by the pkg-config program. You can search the -dev archives for the very detailed discussion on this subject. I cannot explain why you had trouble with a package not being able to find it, but I would look somewhere else than because the .pc file is installed in /usr/share. It works fine for me. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 16:50:00 up 23:26, 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.08 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
