[Openembedded-users] How do ensure a packages pkg-config data is installed in the cross compiler tree?

[Alex Bennee]

Hi,

We're using OpenEmbedded to generate a base image for our system. We
then build additional software using the OE compiler and toolchain
(currently by using the /tmp/cross/ utilities and the
/tmp/sysroots/host-linux/ includes and pkg config data).

However I'm having problems in ensuring that the libraries installed
have all their developer data (include and .pc files) available to the
cross compiler. The package in question is gtk+extra but I'd like to
understand what the proper way of doing this is?

I've tried the steps for creating a portable SDK toolchain but that
installs even less stuff in the SDK tree.

So what am I meant to do to ensure I have a fully populated build tree
for cross-compiling external stuff against OE packaged libraries?


Thanks in advance,
