Indeed, see ffmpeg build issue [1].
gnutls.pc contain the full path to libunistring library which trigger an issue
when compiling with "gcc -c" (Compile and assemble, but do not link). When
compiling with "gcc -c", a full path is not accepted, while -lfoo is.
gnutls.pc for static libraries build:
Libs.private: -lintl -lgmp [...]sysroot/usr/lib/libunistring.a
gnutls.pc for shared libraries build:
Libs.private: -lgmp [...]/sysroot/usr/lib/libunistring.so
That's because gnutls use AC_LIB_HAVE_LINKFLAGS [2] witch return the full
library path in LIBUNISTRING. If LTLIBUNISTRING is used in gnutls.pc.in then the
issue is "fixed":
Libs.private: -lintl -lgmp -lunistring
But it's probably a hack...
We don't have a problem with zlib since gnutls build system use zlib.pc thanks
to pkg-config (otherwise we have the same issue with zlib...).
For LIBINTL the AM_GNU_GETTEXT macro is used and return LIBINTL='-lintl'.
GMP_LIBS is set from LIBGNUTLS_HOOKS (m4/hooks.m4) which use AC_CHECK_LIB and
return -lgmp.
The remaining libraries LIBSOCKET, LIBNSL, LIBPTHREAD, LIB_SELECT, TSS_LIBS and
LIBIDN2_LIBS are empty.
We can't use PKG_CHECK_MODULES for libunistring since it doesn't provide a .pc
file. The remaining solution is AC_CHECK_LIB() instead of AC_LIB_HAVE_LINKFLAGS,
it could work since libunistring doesn't link with other libraries (-lunistring
is enough). But we have to do an "invasive" change in the build system.
So I would suggest s/LIBUNISTRING/LTLIBUNISTRING/ in gnutls.pc.
Also having a full path is a .pc file is a problem for relocatable SDK [3] if
you move your HOST_DIR (which contain the STAGING_DIR).
Best regards,
Romain
