[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#670824: libldap2-dev: please provide a pkg-config file

[Luca Capello]

Package: libldap2-dev
Version: 2.4.28-1.2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream patch
Usertags: debian-packaging

Hi there!

While working on packaging lualdap [1], I discovered that libldap2-dev
does not provide any pkg-config file [2].  Here is an example which
returns the values used by lualdap:
=====
# cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libldap.pc
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
sharedlibdir=${libdir}
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: libldap
Description: OpenLDAP library
Version: 2.4.28

Requires:
Libs: -L${libdir} -L${sharedlibdir} -lldap
Cflags: -I${includedir}
# pkg-config --cflags ldap

# pkg-config --libs ldap
-lldap
#
=====

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
