Description Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2006-11-30 18:04:34 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8.0.8) Gecko/20061107 Fedora/1.5.0.8-1.fc6 Firefox/1.5.0.8

Description of problem:
According to current packaging guidelines all -devel packages which include pkgconfig's .pc files must have
Requires: pkgconfig
libpng for FC5 does not have it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libpng-devel-1.2.8-2.2.1

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare a package that Requires: libpng-devel and uses pkgconfig to find out CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
2. Rebuild that package in mock.

Actual Results:
Build fails.

Expected Results:
pkgconfig should get pulled as build dependency and build should succeed.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Tom Lane 2006-11-30 20:10:01 UTC 
FWIW, this seems already fixed in FC6.
Comment 2 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2006-12-05 02:04:30 UTC 
I know. The bug is filled against FC5. I tried to build tachyon with unmodified
devel/FC6 spec and found that I couldn't without adding a workaround.
Comment 3 Tom Lane 2007-05-24 05:38:53 UTC 
Done in libpng-1.2.8-3.fc5 ... sorry about the delay, but there's been no other reason to turn the package.
