Is PKG_CONFIG_PATH set on the buildsystem?

[Jonathan Underwood]

Hi,

I was just trying to update  package of mine, and the main change is
adding the following macros to the spec file:

%define emacs_version %(pkg-config emacs --modversion)
%define emacs_lispdir %(pkg-config emacs --variable sitepkglispdir)
%define emacs_startdir %(pkg-coonfig emacs --variable sitestartdir)

in order to determine those things at package build time (as discussed
previously on fedora-packaging). However, on attempting to check the
changes in, I get this:

cvs diff: [12:11:28] obtained lock in /cvs/extras/rpms/emacs-vm/devel
Package emacs was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `emacs.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'emacs' found

Is it therefore not possible to call pkg-config from within a spec
file? Could this be fixed?

Cheers,
