Hi --
I have several versions of python and pygtk installed and switch between them
using "port select python ...". The port py25-gtk installs pygtk-2.0.pc in
/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig, where I expect it to be. But py27-gtk puts it in
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/pkgconfig/,
which is confusing build scripts that use pkg-config. Is this intentional, or
a bug in py27-gtk? (py26-gtk, py26-gobject, and py27-gobject have similar
behavior.)
The result of this is that I end up using py25-gtk's version of pygtk-2.0.pc
even when building with python27. This actually works ok, because I don't use
the parts of pygtk-2.0.pc that differ between the two versions. But when
building my software with python27 on a computer on which py25-gtk hasn't been
installed, the .pc file isn't found and the build script fails.
Am I expected to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH when switching python versions? Shouldn't
"port select python" copy the .pc files from
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python... to /opt/local/lib/pkgconfig?
Thanks,
Steve
