[Bug 838187] Re: libgcrypt-config provides an inconsistent result

[Guillaume Emont]

I realised later that compilation breakage only happens under particular conditions.
In my case, I was compiling a project under jhbuild, with libgcrypt being the only dependency taken from the system, so that their was no -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu in the command, which makes me wonder whether it is really in the default search path (or was jhbuild/my project passing some magical option to reset that path?)

Title:
  libgcrypt-config provides an inconsistent result

Status in “libgcrypt11” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On ubuntu 11.04, libgcrypt-config gives the following linking parameters:
  $ libgcrypt-config --libs
  -L/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lgcrypt
  But there is no libgcrypt.so in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:

  $ /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep libgcrypt.so$
          libgcrypt.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so
          libgcrypt.so (libc6) => /lib32/libgcrypt.so

  This means that any project using libgcrypt-config or
  AM_PATH_LIBGCRYPT() to compile against gcrypt will fail to compile.
