Prior versions of tomcat-native 1.2.x generated and installed a pkg-config file (tcnative-1.pc) as part of the install process for the native library. The source file is no longer included in the distribution and the install procedure no longer generates or installs it. There's no mention of it being discontinued in the top-level CHANGELOG.txt, and the native/tcnative.spec file still references it. That leaves an end user or a package builder in the confusing situation of not knowing whether it's been intentionally removed or accidentally forgotten.
Are you referring to https://github.com/apache/tomcat-native/blob/main/native/build/rpm/tcnative.spec.in#L89? If so, it was simply forgotten by me.
Hi Michael- Yes, I am referring to that. And that there's no mention in the CHANGELOG.txt that pkg-config has been intentionally removed.

Well, it seems it wasn't good enough. See: * https://github.com/apache/tomcat-native/commit/853a2abcd54cc58cf19aaddb093a9f46ff248336 * Bug 64260 It should have been two distincts tickets. Please create a PR and I will merge it.
Reference removed.
