* Package name : pkgconf Version : 0.8.12 Upstream authors: Baptiste Daroussin <[email protected] Jeff Horelick <[email protected]> Michał Górny <[email protected] William Pitcock <[email protected]> * URL : https://github.com/pkgconf/pkgconf * License : ISC Programming Lang: C Description : a pkg-config replacement pkgconf is a replacement for pkg-config, a system for managing library compile and link flags that works with automake and autoconf. . As far as it's known to date, pkgconf is compatible with all known variations of this macro. pkgconf detects at runtime whether or not it was started as 'pkg-config', and if so, attempts to set program options such that its behaviour is similar. . pkgconf builds an acyclic directed dependency graph. This allows for the user to more conservatively link their binaries — which may be helpful in some environments, such as when prelink(1) is being used. As a result of building a directed dependency graph designed for the specific problem domain provided by the user, more accurate dependencies can be determined. pkg-config, on the other hand builds a database of all known pkg-config files on the system before attempting to resolve dependencies, which is a considerably slower and less efficient design. . pkgconf does not bundle any third-party libraries or depend on any third-party libraries. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
