Cover letter [Buildroot] [PATCH 0/3] Fix udftools in static linking scenarios
Hello,
Quoted 10 lines · Rahul Bedarkar
Using pkg-config file is indeed a correct fix. But I think we should understand why readline doesn't install .pc file by default. This might be a reason that it is outdated and incorrect. Yes, in past we have fixed static linking with readline for many packages by passing it's private libraries.
May be if we first upstream readline changes with .pc installation in autotools files, it would be nice to use fix. Otherwise, we need to maintain patch and .pc file updated (in case of any changes in list of private libraries).
My readline patch fixing the .pc file contents was merged upstream:

And I've submitted another patch that does install the .pc file:

Best regards,
Thomas
