FindPkgConfig not found with empty reason when strawberry perl is in PATH on Windows
Here's the exact error message
-- Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE)
Reason given by package: The command
"C:/strawberry/perl/bin/pkg-config" --version
failed with output
I have a change ready that enhances the error output, which will end up showing:
-- Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE)
Reason given by package: The command
"C:/strawberry/perl/bin/pkg-config" --version
failed with output:
stderr:
result:
%1 is not a valid Win32 application
The failure is related to #16453 where a non-bat
file ends up being found instead of the bat
file.
