“That patch on trunk has fixed my issue. Thx for the help.”
In Details
This patch modifies the configure.ac file to check for both msgpack.pc and msgpack-c.pc when searching for the msgpack library. This resolves a dependency issue caused by a rename.
For Context
The configure script in binutils checks for the presence of external libraries required to build the project. This patch updates the script to look for both the old and new names of the msgpack library's package configuration file (.pc file), ensuring that the build process can find the library regardless of which name is used.
