Bug 938483 – media-gfx/inkscape-1.3.2-r2 wrong libdir for pkg-config

• Status: CONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ulrich Müller 2024-08-25 06:46:26 UTC]

pkg-config announces lib2geom in /usr/lib:

   $ pkg-config --libs 2geom
   -L/usr/lib -l2geom

... but installs it in /usr/lib64 (as it should, this is a 64 bit system):

   $ qlist -e inkscape | grep lib2geom
   /usr/lib64/lib2geom.so
   /usr/lib64/lib2geom.so.1.3.0

AFAICS this is because src/3rdparty/2geom/2geom.pc.in hard-codes "lib" for libdir.

Presumably it should use @CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR@ (and @CMAKE_INSTALL_INCLUDEDIR@ for includedir) instead.
