Thomas, All,

On 2019-01-02 18:36 +0100, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> For some odd reason, the new pkg-config 1.5.3 changed the behavior of
> "pkg-config --version": as soon as another argument than "--version"
> is passed, the code assumes the user wanted to run "--modversion"
> instead.

> Sadly, this breaks badly with our pkg-config wrapper that

> BR2_STATIC_LIBS=y. When ffmpeg calls "pkg-config --version" to test if
> pkg-config is available and functional, it's actually "pkg-config
> --static --version" that gets executed. pkg-config assumes that the
> user wanted to use --modversion and bails out with an error.
