[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] (ASTERISK-25329) Asterisk configure fails on 'cannot find ptlib-config', despite ptlib-config existing

[Alexander Traud (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-25329?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Alexander Traud updated ASTERISK-25329:
---------------------------------------

    Attachment: ptlib-config.patch

Another workaround is to go for: {{sudo apt remove libpt-dev}}

This issue happens in Ubuntu as well, since the year 2014 (or even longer). I attached a patch, although the issue is within the package itself. That tool should not be that hidden but work directly. Hopefully someone watching this issue here raises a bug report at Debian as well.

> When configuring Asterisk 13.5.0 I get

> checking for /usr/include/ptlib.h... yes
> checking for ptlib-config... no
> ./configure: line 27669: --ldflags: command not found
> Cannot find ptlib-config - please install and try again
> {noformat}
> apt-file search shows "libpt-dev: /usr/share/ptlib/make/ptlib-config"
> and apt-get shows "libpt-dev is already the newest version."
> configure doesn't seem to find it ptlib-config..
> {noformat}

> workaround is to specify the location manually:
> {noformat}
> export PTLIB_CONFIG=/usr/share/ptlib/make/ptlib-config
> {noformat}
> Ran configure again and it was fine.
