gpgrt-config − Helper script to get information about the installed version of gpg libraries
gpgrt-config [options] [ module ]
gpgrt-config is a script tool that is used by the autoconf macros shipped with gnupg software (e.g. AM_PATH_GPG_ERROR and AM_PATH_GPGME) to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use the specific library (e.g. libgpg-error or libgpgme). gpgrt-config uses pkg-config .pc files as data source.
Apart from options gpgrt-config accepts a single argument module specifying the basename (without the ".pc"-suffix) of the pkg-config file to be used as input. module will default to gpg-error if it is not specified.
gpgrt-config
accepts the following options:
--libdir=LIBDIR
Parent directory path of pkgconfig file search path. e.g. ‘gpgrt-config --libdir=/usr/lib --exists gpgme’ will parse ‘/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gpgme.pc’.
--exists
Test whether the pkg-config file ‘module.pc’ exist and exits with success or error accordingly.
--modversion
Print the currently installed version of module on the standard output.
--libs |
Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program using the module. |
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program using the module.
--static
Modifies output if linking statically instead of dynamically.
--variable=VARNAME
Output variable VARNAME from the module’s pkg-config file.
gpgrt-config is tried to be compatible to pkg-config, and to support cross build well, but it is not intended to be a replacement.
