qpid.pc installing into /usr/lib/pkgconfig on x86_64
Hi
I ran "./configure --prefix=/usr" and qpid.pc got installed into
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/. All the other .pc files on my system are in
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/.
Now my "PKG_CHECK_MODULES(QPID)" doesn't work.
Any ideas? Any other preferred way of finding the libs?
I am on Fedora14, using latest qpid code.
Regards
Angus Salkeld

Right, and from a quick read-around the standard solution is
./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64
If someone knows of autoconf project(s) that have a better solution we could
copy it but I'm not keen on trying to figure it out by trial and error.

I don't think this works as a test.
Remember that in many 64 bit systems (certainly true for x86_64) you can
run and compile both 32 and 64 bit binaries, so the presence of the 64
bit libs doesn't show what you want to build one way or the other.
Also it's very important to note that the lib/lib64 distinction is not
at all general and pretty much distribution specific. For example this
isn't how it's done on FreeBSD (lib/lib32).
So I don't think that the upstream source should try to vary from the
gnu defaults and distribution packaging should deal with it themselves
(which is indeed what the Fedora packages do).
This also isn't at all specific to qpid.

OK, no worries I have worked around it.
you could do something like this in the configure.ac:
if test "$libdir" = "\${exec_prefix}/lib"; then
if test -e /usr/lib64; then
libdir="${exec_prefix}/lib64"
fi
fi

You can get it to do the right thing with:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64
I'm not sure how to get automake to do it right automatically.

Can you manually copy the .pc file for now? I'll look into why its installed in
the wrong place.
