Well, rpm tells that there is no package requiring pkgconf-pkg-config or pkg-config or even pkgconf. But when I try to remove one of them, it gives me a long list of dependencies. Sad

In previous Redhat based distro (a few years ago) I had to install pkg-config manually. This has changed apparently.

edit: Those packages require /usr/bin/pkg-config directly or pkgconfig (pkgconfig is not a package but a virtual dependency). This explain this.

After some discussion with Mirek, I proposed patch for possible minimal set of pkg-config dependencies in uppsrc/CtrlCore and uppsrc/Draw packages:
https://www.ultimatepp.org/redmine/issues/2007

I tested build on FreeBSD 10.4 (for examples/AddressBook and reference/ConsoleDraw packages, but also for uppsrc/ide, etc.) for GUI and "GUI X11" main package configurations.

Please test for other platforms, if interested.

Hi Sender Ghost,

If U++ uses GTK3 only, x11 or libnotify are not required.
Previous U++ release required libnotify-devel. x11-devel is installed because GTK3 devel package ask for it.

So if I'm not wrong, this part of the patch is incorrect:

-pkg_config((LINUX | FREEBSD) !X11) "gtk+-3.0 libnotify";
+pkg_config(POSIX !X11 (!OSX | OSX11)) "gtk+-3.0 x11";

and should be replaced by

-pkg_config((LINUX | FREEBSD) !X11) "gtk+-3.0 libnotify";
+pkg_config(POSIX !X11 (!OSX | OSX11)) "gtk+-3.0 libnotify";

-pkg_config((LINUX | FREEBSD) !X11) "gtk+-3.0 libnotify";
+pkg_config(POSIX !X11 (!OSX | OSX11)) "gtk+-3.0 libnotify";

If use
pkg_config(POSIX !X11 (!OSX | OSX11)) "gtk+-3.0 libnotify";
or
pkg_config(POSIX !X11 (!OSX | OSX11)) "gtk+-3.0";
in uppsrc/CtrlCore package to build examples/AddressBook for GUI main package configuration, then there is following linker error:
Linking...
/usr/bin/ld: undefined reference to symbol `XFlush' (try adding -lX11)
//usr/local/lib/libX11.so.6: could not read symbols: Bad value
c++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
The XFlush function is used in GetProperty function in uppsrc/CtrlCore/GtkX11Util.cpp file for GUI_GTK define. This is why !X11 (GTK 3) case requires x11 pkg-config dependency (at least on FreeBSD, where other specified pkg-config dependencies didn't include x11 implicitly).

% pkg-config -cflags -libs x11
-I/usr/local/include -D_THREAD_SAFE -pthread -L/usr/local/lib -lX11
Edit:
But after build test for reference/TrayIcon package, there was following linker error:
<..>/CtrlLib/CLANG.Gui.Shared/CtrlLib.a(TrayIconGtk.o): In function `Upp::TrayIcon::Message(int, char const*, char const*, int)':
<..>/upp/uppsrc/CtrlLib/TrayIconGtk.cpp:(.text._ZN3Upp8TrayIcon7MessageEiPKcS2_i+0x1b): undefined reference to `notify_is_initted'

c++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
where mentioned functions are used in TrayIcon::Message method in uppsrc/CtrlLib/TrayIconGtk.cpp file.
This may mean, that libnotify package dependency is required for some cases in uppsrc/CtrlLib package.
Possible to add following check for uppsrc/CtrlLib package:
pkg_config(POSIX !X11 (!OSX | OSX11)) libnotify;

Example of ldd output for TrayIcon and AddressBook executables for this case, which library dependencies are the same:

Thanks for your attention.

Dependencies issues on BSD fix + finer dependencies fix. So your patch looks Ok in fact LOL.

I will test this further on different distros after your patch been applied + introduction of LDLIBS in Makefile.in and uMakefile.in.
