Maybe this is related to this ticket in libusb.org. https://libusb.org/ticket/149 +++++++++++ http://people.freedesktop.org/~dbn/pkg-config-guide.html#faq My library z uses libx internally, but does not expose libx data types in its public API. What do I put in my z.pc file? Again, add the module to Requires.private if it supports pkg-config. In this case, the compiler flags will be emitted unnecessarily, but it ensures that the linker flags will be present when linking statically. If libx does not support pkg-config, add the necessary linker flags to Libs.private. +++++++++++ -- Xiaofan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
