I'm not a good enough programmer to know what changes need to be made to a 
configure script to tell it to look in a different spot for the .x86 and the 
x86_64 versions. I'll file a bug report though. Thanks.

$ rpm -qf --whatprovides /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gmime-2.6.pc
gmime-devel-2.5.1-1.fc13.i686

So, if the package you are trying to build is looking for gmime.pc,
the app's configure script or main Makefile need to be modified
to look for gmime-2.6.pc

good luck.

Doesn't sound right. If you're on x86_64, the gmime*.pc files are
stored in /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/ instead. If PAN searches only in
/usr/lib (possibly hardcoded!), it may need a bug report to inform
its developers, or you may need to tell its configure script to
use --libdir=/usr/lib64

Yeah... it was wanting the .i686 version. I installed the i686-devel 
package and it compiled. :-)

Which file exactly is search for? There is no non-versioned gmime.pc here,
afaik, and that makes a _big_ difference:

$ repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gmime-2.0.pc
gmime22-devel-0:2.2.25-1.fc13.i686
$ repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gmime-2.6.pc
gmime-devel-0:2.5.1-1.fc13.i686

I already tried that. :-( I also tried removing and reinstalling it, I've 
tried "reinstalling" it... No joy, the gmime.pc file is not there.

HELP! Can't compile a program or an RPM due to a missing .pc file

2011-02-24 Thread John Aldrich
I'm trying to build/compile a new RPM of the latest and greatest PAN 
newsreader, but I can't even get the tarball to compile because it's 
complaining about a missing gmime. Now I've *got* gmime installed and it's 
newer than the minimum version, but the gmime.pc file is missing and I don't 
know enough to create it.

How do I fix this problem???

Thanks!
