Description benjaminmoody 2015-06-04 18:18:02 UTC 
Description of problem:

On x86_64 Fedora, when libcurl-devel.i686 is installed but libcurl-devel.x86_64 is *not*, curl-config (--cflags/--libs) doesn't work.

(curl-config has been modified to use pkg-config, which on x86_64, only searches for .pc files in /usr/lib64/pkgconfig.)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

7.37.0-14.fc21


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -e libcurl-devel.x86_64; yum install libcurl-devel.i686
2. curl-config --libs


Actual results:

Package libcurl was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libcurl.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libcurl' found


Expected results:

-lcurl


Additional info:

"Perhaps I should", but since the curl cflags and libs are not arch-dependent, it's an extra annoyance that I should not have to deal with.  There is no reason to involve pkg-config here; --cflags is "" and --libs is "-lcurl" and that's all that needs to be said.
