Description
For some time we have been distributing UPS products where the table files incorrectly set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. This error should be fixed. Lynn and Chris can comment more.
History
#1 Updated by Christopher Green about 2 years ago
PKG_CONFIG_PATH is set in many table files to be the package prefix (usually ${XXXX_FQ_DIR}). In order to operate correctly it must be set to be the actual directory containing the .pc file (for instance, for libxml2 this is ${LIBXML2_FQ_DIR}/lib/pkgconfig}).

#3 Updated by Lynn Garren almost 2 years ago
If the product does not have a package config file, then we will remove PKG_CONFIG_PATH from the table file.
