Hi! I'm packaging for linux an application which uses spidermonkey interpreter. At present this application ships with a copy of spidermonkey sources which are statically linked, obviously I'd like to link to an external library instead.
Many linux distributions nowadays ship with a package like 'libmozjs' which is one of the packages created from xulrunner sources, for instance in Debian you have: http://packages.debian.org/sid/libmozjs-dev . The above mentioned debian package is a nice solution to my problem: by simply using 'mozilla-js' pkg-config directives I can build successfully, however it mangles official xulrunner header files hierarchy to achieve that. So for instance if I'd like to build against an external javascript library on Gentoo (which doesn't mangle the installation) I have to use both 'mozilla-js' and 'libxul-embedding-unstable' which is a bit overkill if I only need the javascript C engine. So the question is: do you think in the future will be possible to simply use the information provided by 'mozilla-js.pc' to build and link successfully an application using javascript C engine?
