Re: Compiling problems

[<dahaverk rockwellcollins com>]

I'm all for this....  How about instead of using "ORBIT2_PREFIX" we use
"ENV_PREFIX".

"ENV_PREFIX" seems to be used in my Cygnus/GNU cross compile environment
setup.

Anyone else have something different?

pkg-config is the spawn of the devil because it makes
it difficult to cross-compile (e.g. for the Sharp Zaurus).
Package-specific config scripts are slightly more cross-compile-friendly.

If you want your project to be cross-compile-friendly, and you're dead set
on using config scripts, you'd use something like this
to allow the user to override the path to pkg-config:

CFLAGS = $(shell $(ORBIT2_PREFIX)orbit2-config --cflags)
