Hi Everyone,
I'm having trouble testing GNU's Wget2 on DragonFly. Configure is
dying because it looks like pkg-config is not installed. That's no big
deal - I should only need to install pkg-config...
I cannot find the name of the pkg-config package:
$ command -v pkg-config
$
$ sudo find /usr -name pkg-config
$
But the man pages says it exists (or implies it exists somewhere?):
$ man -k pkg-config
pkg-config, pkg config(8) - retrieve the value of a given configuration option
Try to install it:
$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/pkg install pkg-config
Updating Avalon repository catalogue...
Avalon repository is up to date.
All repositories are up to date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'pkg-config' have been
found in the repositories
$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/pkg install pkgconfig
Updating Avalon repository catalogue...
Avalon repository is up to date.
All repositories are up to date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'pkgconfig' have been
found in the repositories
I don't know what name DragonFly uses for pkg-config. Searching is
turning up irrelevant noise.
What is the name of the pkg-config package?
Thanks in advance.
