Description Muhammad Moinur Rahman freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-01-01 12:31:59 UTC 
science/hdf5 by default doeesn't create any .pc for pkg-config to dynamically link with it's libraries. So far it seems we will need to use cmake.

I have just submitted PR 251894 which could solve this, if your port supports HDF5 1.12.0:

My problem is with science/py-netCDF4 which cannot find the library itself as there is no .pc file. Thanks for the patch. I will try to give it a shot once it lands in the tree.

Oops. Sorry I forgot about this.

I am a bit confused with all the works with bug #251894. Can you tell me which patch I should actually try my port?

See https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=251894#c21

But it was not approved by sunpoet (maintainer).

As the other patches are not obsoleted so I am taking your last patch which is from https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=251894#c19

Will keep you posted on updates here.

Can you refresh the patch please? Makefile fails to be patched.

What patch? I'm not a user or consumer of this port, I'm just trying to clean up PRs in bugzilla.

science/hdf5 provides .pc now. See bug 265152.
