#34271: python27 2.7.3_0 py27-gtk 2.22.0_1 etc -- pkg-config files not installed correctly for python 2.6 and 2.7 versions of pygtk and pygobject -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: stephen.langer@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.4 Keywords: | Port: py25-gtk py27-gtk py26-gtk py27-gobject py26-gobject py25-gobject python26 python27 -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Comment(by stephen.langer@…): Replying to [comment:10 ryandesign@…]: Hi Ryan -- Thanks for the comments. I'll modify my setup scripts so that they detect if macports is being used, and set PKG_CONFIG_PATH accordingly. However, it seems wrong to have to hard code such a deep path. This seems to be a deficiency in pkg-config that must affect other package management systems, not just macports. It could be fixed by giving pkg- config a path extension method, such as python's .pth files. Then python27 could install /opt/local/lib/pkgconfig/python.pth, which would contain the string "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/pkgconfig/". Since python.pth would be part of each python package, the correct version would be installed by "port select". Does that sound feasible? Is it worth contacting the pkg-config developers? -- Steve -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34271#comment:11> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
