NACK, setting pkg-config already takes care of this. See the build-many.sh scrpit attached to this mail which demonstrates use of PKG_CONFIG_PATH to build against every version of libvirt back to 0.9.11
Is there a way to point pkg-config at an in-tree uninstalled libvirt?
That's not going to do anything because the .pc file will still point to the install location. You could however create a completely separate libvirt.pc file just for in-tree usage that pointed to stuff in the $build_dir, and then set PKG_CONFNIG_PATH to point to the directory containing that .pc file instead of the real one.
Interesting idea; I'll play with it, and if I get it working for my setup, I'll post a patch to the README that demonstrates a sample .pc file for others to tweak. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
