Attachments:	Use gstreamer's pcfile to get include dirs

Description Rex Dieter 2015-06-20 21:30:53 UTC

Summary says it all, telepathy-qt fails to build against gstreamer-1.5.x

This is due to gstconfig.h moving to a location outside of /usr/include/gstreamer-1.0

See also downstream bug,
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1234051

I solved (worked-around) the problem there by using a different FindGStreamer.cmake (from webkit), that defines GSTREAMER_INCLUDE_DIRS (instead of a single GSTREAMER_INCLUDE_DIR),

Use gstreamer's pcfile to get include dirs

Here's a minimal patch, applied to Ubuntu, to fix the current method to try the pcfile first and use its include dirs if possible.

Would still be better to just use tp-farstream's pcfile.

I'm sorry for missing this bug and suggested patch.

Fixed in:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/telepathy/telepathy-qt/commit/?id=ec4a3d62b68a57254515f01fc5ea3325ffb1dbfb

Patch from Iain Lane looks a bit better for me, but I'm not a CMake pro and it is too late.

The next bug would be reviewed faster, I promise.

You could still take this one.
