commit 2a349006b9c1feba0a29ede4838cf8f5fdc0b2e5 Author: Hans-Christoph Steiner <hans@eds.org> Date: Tue Oct 29 21:13:56 2019 +0100 force pkg-config to only use --prefix when cross-compiling The current pkg-config setup has no sense of whether it is cross-compiling, so it will detect things on the build system that are not present or are wrong for the host system. This forces the cross-compiling build to only look for pkg-config .pc files in --prefix. A version of this has been the setup for many years with the Android builds.
