Description Ralf Corsepius 2017-02-24 15:17:34 UTC 
Description of problem:

The libtimidity.pc file shipped with libtimidity-devel contains a broken libdir:

# cat /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libtimidity.pc 
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
...

On 64bit targets, this causes pkg-config to return /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64.
# pkg-config --libs libtimidity
-L/usr/lib -ltimidity

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libtimidity-0.2.1-2.fc26.x86_64

Additional info:
- I haven't checked older Fedoras, but I'd assume all released version on all released Fedoras are affected.

- This bogus -L/usr/lib introduces bogus linker paths when building other packages and can cause linking errors in multilib'ed environments.

- One possible fix would be this patch:
diff -Naur libtimidity-0.2.1.orig/libtimidity.pc.in libtimidity-0.2.1/libtimidity.pc.in

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2017-02-28 12:26:04 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle.
Changing version to '26'.
Comment 2 Ozkan Sezer 2017-03-19 08:16:04 UTC 
I just applied the following patch in mainstream:
https://sourceforge.net/p/libtimidity/libtimidity/ci/f8ba2ff6aee08fdca235ed17b45413f7e94e1821/

Is this good enough?
