cmake: Use pkg-config to search for libev, add options to configure location manually

Added by tyll almost 13 years ago. Updated about 4 years ago.

Status:

New

Priority:

Normal

Description

On Fedora the correct path for ev.h is libev/ev.h, but fcgi-debug uses a hardcoded path without the libev directory. Can you please use pkgconfig or something else to determine the proper path for the header file?

Tracker changed from Bug to Feature
Subject changed from fcgi-debug does not compile on Fedora (wrong path to ev.h) to cmake: Use pkg-config to search for libev, add options to configure location manually

The path is correct, but you have to add /usr/include/libev to the list of include directories, like CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/libev

Upstream libev still has no pkg-config files (although i think debian and opensuse have them). and yes, i tried getting it upstream :)

I'll tag this as a feature request to make this easier to configure.

As a reference: lighttpd2 already has this:
