| | 4 | |
| | 5 | parrot.pc will no longer be generated or installed. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | === Rationale === |
| | 8 | |
| | 9 | pkg-config conflicts with Parrot's installation guidelines which support multiple simultaneous installed versions (PDD30). As it stands, Parrot's pkg-config information has been unusable for several years, but noone has complained, indicating that this is unused. |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | === Replacement === |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | Use parrot_config, which is installed with the parrot system. The keys 'embed-cflags' and 'embed-ldflags' replace the pkg-config values of 'CFlags' and 'Libs'. |
