py312-gobject3: Missing pkg-config file pygobject-3.0.pc required to build third party code like xpra

Reported by: gl-yziquel Owned by: dbevans (David B. Evans)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.8.99
Keywords: Cc: mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)
Port: py-gobject3

Description

Hi.

First of all, all apologies if this ticket does not abide by guidelines: I just installed MacPorts a few days ago and am still discovering the userland.

My concern is the following: as far as I can tell, the py312-gobject port does not export the pkg-config pygobject-3.0.pc file. This file is required in order to build from source (not a port) the xpra software (some X tooling to spawn an application on one machine and have it displayed on... my shiny new mac with MacPorts).

I would appreciate 1. if someone could tell me if indeed this pck-config file is not exported 2. if it could be included in that port 3. or if some quick hints as to how this should be performed could be dumped in this ticket as that would help me move forward and, eventually, contribute.

Best regards.

Looking at the port contents, it does install /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/pkgconfig/pygobject-3.0.pc. Using PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/pkgconfig should work.
