I'm trying to build python-matplotlib, which is a plotting package for PyGTK, and I need to compile the GDK rendering backend so that I can put plots onto the screen. (This is for a Gumstix, and I'm using their Danny branch metadata.) The backend source file needs to include pygtk/pygtk.h, which is all over the place in the fragments of the target rootfs since I've built that for the target system, but isn't anywhere to be found in the cross-compilation environment, so the compilation fails.
The whole topic of cross-compilation makes me dizzy. How is this situation dealt with? The source tarball for matplotlib (1.1.0) just assumes that this header file already exists on the user's system. Is this a normal thing for which there's a routine solution in Yocto? Or do I have to hack it by copying one of those files from the target rootfs and including it in my own metadata, forcibly putting it somewhere that the compiler can find it? -- Ciao, Paul D.
