Q: "Package gstreamer-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config"

[ran]

Hello,

I hope someone can help with the following, I am a bit struglling with it.
I am trying to build the tutorials.

@user-VirtualBox:~/gstreamer/gst-docs/examples/tutorials$ gcc
basic-tutorial-1.c -o basic-tutorial-1 `pkg-config --cflags --libs
gstreamer-1.0`
Package gstreamer-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gstreamer-1.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gstreamer-1.0' found
basic-tutorial-1.c:1:21: fatal error: gst/gst.h: No such file or directory
 #include <gst/gst.h>
                     ^
compilation terminated.
user@user-VirtualBox:~


Yet, I did installed gstreamer-1.0-dev (sudo apt-get install
libgstreamer1.0-dev)  and everything seems to be in the correct
folder:

 /usr/include/gstreamer-1.0/gst/gst/....

Does anyone knows what's the problem ?

Thank you,
Ran

No, but you should first look at why pkg-config does not find the .pc
file. You can check that some .pc are found to start with:

  pkg-config --list-all

Next step, would be to run pkg-config in debug mode. It will trace it's
search path, so you can start debugging your distro this way:

 pkg-config --debug --libs gstreamer-1.0

regards,
Nicolas
