Description

From the libvirt mailinglist I got the message that they'd like to see pkg-config for at least librbd and librados.

It shouldn't be that hard to generate these I think?

It requires a version thought, so we need to put a version in there for librados. Extract from the header file?

History

#1 Updated by Sage Weil about 11 years ago

There is a librados-config in librados-dev. Does that mean we just need a librbd-config too?

#2 Updated by Wido den Hollander about 11 years ago

No, I'm talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pkg-config

I added a patch which adds these files, but I'm not that good with Makefiles, so that is still lacking.

The files should end up in $prefix/lib/pkgconfig, user could then do:

root@amd:~# pkg-config --libs librados
-lrados -lcrypto  
root@amd:~# pkg-config --libs librbd
-lrbd -lrados -lcrypto  
root@amd:~# pkg-config --libs libcephfs
-lcephfs  
root@amd:~#

Or something like:

gcc -o testrados testrados.cpp $(pkg-config --libs librados)

These files should work, they should just end up in the -dev packages for Debian and the -devel packages for RHEL.
