Description Ludwig Nussel 2006-09-29 12:34:39 UTC

sudo clears the environment so running pkg-config in "make install" will fail when run via sudo as pkg-config needs $PKG_CONFIG_PATH. pkg-config should be called from "configure" only.

Comment 1 Martin Vidner 2006-10-17 14:55:19 UTC

Workaround: 'sudo make install PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH'

Comment 2 Katarina Machalkova 2006-10-24 14:33:03 UTC

This is copy-paste of failed 'sudo make install':

Package yast2-devtools was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `yast2-devtools.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'yast2-devtools' found
make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/work/yast2'

With fresh devtools from svn (r33645) it seems to work :-)

Comment 4 Martin Vidner 2006-10-24 15:22:15 UTC

Thanks.
Fixed in yast2-devtools-2.13.28.
