[Rprotobuf-yada] alternative to pkg-config

[Romain Francois]

Hi,

It looks like I don't have pkg-config on OSX, so I see:

checking for pkg-config... no
./configure: line 3527: pkg-config: command not found
./configure: line 3528: pkg-config: command not found
...
checking google/protobuf/stubs/common.h usability... yes
checking google/protobuf/stubs/common.h presence... yes
checking for google/protobuf/stubs/common.h... yes
checking google/protobuf/compiler/code_generator.h usability... yes
checking google/protobuf/compiler/code_generator.h presence... yes
checking for google/protobuf/compiler/code_generator.h... yes

but then :

It seems I can install pkg-config from fink, but maybe some other would 
not, can we do it without pkg-config ?

(.... installing pkg-config through fink.)


Now I get a different error:

** testing if installed package can be loaded
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
   impossible de charger la bibliothèque partagée 
'/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/RProtoBuf/libs/x86_64/RProtoBuf.so':

Using protobuf 2.3.0 freshly compiled and "make check" happy.
