Support for pkgconfig

[alekcey]

Hi all,

Is it possible to add file libcrypto++.pc to cryptopp to make it
possible other
programs built with "-lcrypto++"?

For example libcrypto++.pc was added in Debian
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=473090

and in ALTLinux
http://sisyphus.ru/ru/srpm/Sisyphus/libcryptopp/spec

If every distribution adds pkgconfig support may be it is make sense
to add it
in upstream?

I have no problem with doing that. (Well, except that I'm not familiar with
pkgconfig so I'll probably need help to maintain the file.) Is there a
version of libcrypto++.pc that is in the public domain?

I have no experience with pkgconfig http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pkgconfig

Example of ALTLinux /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libcrypto++.pc here:

http://sisyphus.ru/ru/srpm/Sisyphus/libcryptopp/spec

Name: libcrypto++
Description: General purpose cryptographic shared library
URL: http://www.cryptopp.com
Version: 5.6.0
Requires:
Libs: -lcryptopp
Cflags:

But in Debian it is  slightly different because library name libcrypto+
+.so but in ALTLinux libcryptopp.so.
See deb file in http://packages.debian.org/lenny/libcrypto++-dev

prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: libcrypto++
Description: General purpose cryptographic shared library
URL: http://www.cryptopp.com
Version: 5.5.2
Requires:
Libs: -lcrypto++
Cflags:
