[Bug 1577218] [NEW] includedir is specified incorrectly in glew.pc v1.13.0

 

Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu 15.10, "glew.pc" version 1.10.0 had the following "includedir" entry:
includedir=/usr/include/GL

On Ubuntu 16.04, "glew.pc" version 1.13.0 has such entry changed to:
includedir=$(prefix)/include

As a result, after installing libglew-dev package on Ubuntu Xenial, the following command:
pkg-config --cflags glew

prints: "-I/usr/include/libdrm" instead of "-I/usr/include/GL
-I/usr/include/libdrm". So, C/C++ projects using GLEW can no longer find
necessary headers when using "pkg-config".

As a workaround, on Xenial, "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/glew.pc" can be edited and the problematic line changed to:
includedir=$(prefix)/include/GL
