Bug 344641 – x11-libs/cairo-1.10.0-r3[qt4] creates pkg-config file with unnecessary deps

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM

[Description Dmitry Karasik 2010-11-08 07:50:59 UTC]

Compiling cairo with +qt4 causes the /usr/lib/pkg-config/cairo.pc file to include QtGui in Requires.private. This means that CFLAGS for QtGui are added to all packages building against cairo. This is completely unnecessary, the dependency that cairo +qt4 has on QtGui is for static linking only and thus that line should be removed and -L/usr/lib/qt4 -lQtGui -lQtCore should be added to Libs.private instead.

Sounds like a genuine upstream bug. Care to open a bug report in FreeDesktop's bugzilla?

Thanks

Cant reproduce with full blown cairo...

erm can :P not cant :)

[Comment 4 Dmitry Karasik 2010-12-02 21:40:26 UTC]

What do you mean can't reproduce? The entry: QtGui >= 4.4.0 appears in the Requires.private line that you posted.

spatz is maintaining this now.

[Comment 6 Ben de Groot (RETIRED) 2012-07-25 07:20:29 UTC]

If this is still an issue with 1.12.2, then please open a bug report upstream, as suggest in comment #1.
