-Subject: [PATCH] pcap-config: don't provide -L/usr/lib for pkg-config --libs.
-
-It shouldn't be necessary, as C compilers generally look there by
-default and...
-
-...it can cause problems if the libpcap you want *isn't* in /usr/lib.
-For example, on some systems that support both 32-bit and 64-bit
-executables, this might cause the 32-bit library to be found, even on
-64-bit platforms, with hilarity ensuing afterwards.
-
-In particular, on Solaris 11, where /usr/lib has the 32-bit libraries
-and /usr/lib/{something} has the 64-bit libraries ({something} depends
-on whether it's SPARC or x86), that's what happens if you try to do a
-CMake build of tcpdump against the system libpcap:
-
-The CMake file for finding pcap converts the -lpcap provided by
-pcap-config into the absolute path of libpcap, and that's the path of
-the 32-bit library, as it looks in /usr/lib. (CMake really wants "find
-library" scripts to supply a list of libraries giving their absolute
-paths.)
-
-Thus, if you're using GCC, the tests done to find out what pcap APIs are
-available will fail, as the test programs get build 64-bit but are
-linked with the 32-bit libpcap; the link fails as you're mixing 32-bit
-and 64-bit code, and the CMake script treats that as meaning "the
-function isn't available".
-
-(Sun C apparently somehow manages either to build 32-bit code by
-default, so that linking with /usr/lib/libpcap.so succeeds, or realizes
-that linking 64-bit code with /usr/lib/{library}.so is bogus and links
-with /usr/lib/{something}/libpcap.so instead.)
-
-Debian removed the -L in pcap-config for similar reasons; to quote the
-comment at the beginning of the patch file:
-
- Remove -L<libdir> from default pcap-config --libs output, as
- libdir is already in the default toolchain search path on
- Debian, and we want the generated script to be arch-independent.
-
-(We don't remove it from the .pc file; we assume that 1) pkg-config and
-2) the packager of libpcap does what is necessary to make this work.)
