after I successfully set up my gcc/g++ environment under my Linux installation, I decided to do that for my Windows 11 machine as well. For that purpose I decided to use MSYS2. With the help of that handy tool I quickly installed MinGW as well as corresponding libraries.
One library which gives me headache (under Windows) is pkg-config. But before the installation of pkg-config, I installed gtk-3.0 first. I just installed it with the following command:
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gtk3
After that I installed pkg-config with the following command:
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-pkg-config
After that, I tried to get all include and library flags for gtk3:
pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0
However after entering that command, the following error message occurs:
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-3.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'gtk+-3.0', required by 'virtual:world', not found
The thing is that this exact command works like a charm under my Linux installation but somehow pkg-config can't find the package in the pkg-config search path. Why is that the case? Is that a known problem within the MSYS2 environment?
I would appreciate every tip I can get from you.
Thank you in advance!
EDIT: It looks like I just had to start the MinGW64 shell and not the one from MSYS2. Within that environment the files can be found and no error will occur. Thanks #HolyBlackCat!
The following answer is outdated, written in italic style and shouldn't be followed.
I just solved it by myself. I found out that I had to copy all .pc files from msys64\mingw64\lib\pkgconfig to the path I get from echoing PKG_CONFIG_PATH:
echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
gives me
/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig:/lib/pkgconfig
So I just copied the files to /usr/lib/pkgconfig - problem solved!
Thank you anyway! :)

I was trying to make a facial recognition app using Go and Kagami/go-face repository. It requires dlib-models. And I was used MSYS tool for get the distribution in windows.
But when I try to get the go repository using go get github.com/Kagami/go-face command and it gives an error:
# pkg-config --cflags -- dlib-1
Any one had this issue before in windows 10.
As commented, the README lists the Windows pre-requisites, involving MSYS2.
This was from commit 968bbf9, following issue 5 "Windows support?"
Another approach would be to use Docker, with an Ubuntu image, which would come with dlib, where you can add Go and experiment there.
I also faced the same problem. pkg-config.exe will be found in the path:
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin
if you installed MSYS2 on default path. Export
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin
this path to environment variable then you wont get that error.
I am trying to include ZMQ sockets in a Go app but both zmq4 and gozmq (the referred ZMQ binding libraries for Go) are giving me problems. I would like to understand why zmq4 specifically isn't importable on my system.
I am running a Windows 8 system and I used the windows installer from the ZMQ website for version 4.0.3. I am primarily concerned about getting zmq4 set up and here is the result of my "go get" query on the github library's location:
> go get github.com/pebbe/zmq4
# github.com/pebbe/zmq4
polling.go:4:17: fatal error: zmq.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
This issue is not alleviated by cloning the Github repository - the error remains the same.
I know the issue has to do with the C library zmq.h that is located in the "include" folder of my ZMQ installation, but whether the dependency is held up by a pathing issue or an external tool issue is a mystery to me.
A similar error has come up in regards to node.js and is the solution I see others referred to, outside of node scripting, but it was unsuccessful in my case.
I've so far included the path to the "include" folder in my PATH environment variable and previously placed zmq.h inside of the zmq4 top-level folder. I don't have much of an arsenal otherwise to understand this problem because I am new to C and C-importing packages in Go
I wanted to do the same thing, but on Windows 7, and here is what I had to do.
Since the Go bindings are using cgo to integrate with zeromq, you need zeromq built with gcc. There are no pre-built binaries, so you'll have to build them yourself, with mingw or similar, but this process is easier than it may sound, and nicely described on the zeromq site.
As #photoionized pointed out, C_INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH need to be set when building the Go bindings.
(In my case, I ran into a problem when compiling libzmq with IN6_ADDR not being defined. The only solution I found was, inspired by this issue, to manually add the line #include <in6addr.h> to the windows.hpp file.)
The Windows installer version of ZeroMQ won't work with zmq4, you need to compile from source with gcc, I recommend using MSYS2.
Install and update MSYS2 following the instructions from
http://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/wiki/MSYS2%20installation/
Start the mingw32_shell.bat or mingw64_shell.bat based on Go arch (32bit or 64bit)

An updated answer using MSYS2.
Install MSYS2 MSYS2 installation guide.
Make sure to choose the correct installation 32bit or 64bit.
Open the appropriate shell MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit or MSYS2 MinGW 32-bit. All further steps assume you are using this shell.
Update packages following instructions at the installation guide.
Install libtool pacman -Sy libtool.
Download zmq source code to a location of your choice.
Navigate to the zmq source folder.
To generate the configure file, run the autogen tool by running ./autogen.sh.
In the probable case that step 8 fails:
Find the file at fault (probably version.sh).
Replace line endings by (replace file by the actual filename).
cp file file.bak
tr -d '\r' <file.bak> file
If this fails you'll have to dive in the code and find the problem.
Run the configure tool ./configure.
In the probable case of failure. Comment out empty else clauses in the configure file.
Add Go to Path: PATH=${PATH}:<go bin directory>.
Install Go Package: CGO_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include CGO_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib go get github.com/pebbe/zmq4
To install ZMQ in windows: Problem in Installing Golang ZMQ for windows - fatal error: czmq.h: No such file or directory

I am trying to compile, libgphoto2 with libxml2 support followint the guidelines here. Everything is ok until I try to run ./configure:
./configure --prefix=/tmp/gphoto2/local --with-libxml2=yes
That appears to me as a correct syntax, however I got an output:
LIBXML2 to support Olympus ..: no
I have checked this in 2 different systems (LinuxMint 11 x64 and Ubuntu 13.04), and I have found the same problem.
Can anyone give me a clue or solution?
Is there any problem with the syntax?
Is there a common problem with the configure --with-PACKAGE[=yes] option?
Is there a common problem with LIBXML2 used in compilation?
Thanks for any help!
This problem as appears on Debian Wheezy (Linux debian 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.41-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux) and the latest libgphoto2 release 2.5.2
libxml2-dev package is installed :-
Package: libxml2-dev
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Multi-Arch: same
Version: 2.8.0+dfsg1-7+nmu1
Not totally familiar with configure scripts
but configure.ac file has line:-
AC_CHECK_HEADER(libxml/parser.h,[
which I assume looks for libmxl/parser.h
the libxml2-dev package delivers the file
/usr/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h
It looks like libgphoto2 is designed for libxml2 library in a different place
Tried various solutions but only the following worked
as root I sym linked libxml2 to the place libgphoto2 was looking
ln -s /usr/include/libxml2/libxml /usr/include/libxml
After compiling libgphoto2 and gphoto2 this enabled gphoto2 to talk to my Olympus E-510
Bug raised on gphoto sourceforge site (https://sourceforge.net/p/gphoto/bugs/953/) and a patch fix has been provided
Just found another way. Thanks for your help.
After digging in the config.log file created after the ./configure tool, I found the libxml2 error (that I wrongly supposed to stop the configure script):
conftest.c:75:27: fatal error: libxml/parser.h: No such file or directory
But I knew it was there but can't find it! So I checked it and found it under
/usr/lib
And found somewhere else that libxml2 package comes with a script (xml2-config) to give library linking information and more so:
$ xml2-config --cflags
-I/usr/include/libxml2
And the just needed to add the output to the CFLAGS environment variable when configuring:
$ CFLAGS="-I/usr/include/libxml2" ./configure --prefix=/tmp/gphoto2/local --with-libxml2=yes
And everything else was just ok!
Usually, a --with-some-package=yes option checks for the existence of header files for some-package on your system. If it doesn't find the required header files, then it still outputs "no" to the terminal. Have you installed your distribution's libxml2-devel (or similarly named) package?
When using homebrew to install graphviz, the script gets to the point of "Making install in tkstubs" and then throws the following fatal error:
In file included from tkStubLib.c:15:
/usr/include/tk.h:78:11: fatal error: 'X11/Xlib.h' file not found
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
I have installed XQuartz as X11 has been dropped in Mountain Lion, but I'm unsure if it is installed correctly. The location of Xlib.h is:
/opt/X11/include/X11/Xlib.h
There are also two symlinks to /opt/X11, they are:
/usr/X11
/usr/X11R6
Does this look like the correct setup to you? I've never dealt with X11 or XQuartz until yesterday.
Cheers.
After installing XQuartz you may add a symlink to your X11 installation folder by just entering
ln -s /opt/X11/include/X11 /usr/local/include/X11
in terminal. That will fix the problem as well without changing any ruby script.
You need to tell the tkstubs build (and possibly other bits in the package as well) to look for headers in /opt/X11/include; this is not on the standard include path.
Usually this is achieved by passing -I/opt/X11/include as an additional compiler flag, the method to do so is however dependent on the build system.
For reasonably modern configure scripts, the best approach is to pass it in the environment variable CPPFLAGS; if the package uses another build system or this doesn't work for another reason, then you need to look at the Makefile in the build directory.
You can enter in your shell before the compile/link (or brew) command:
export CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/X11/include
The export line will tell the compile/linker to look in /opt/X11/include for the X11 include files
Had the same issue and running this command on terminal
xcode-select --install
worked for me. Run this command after installing xQuartz.
If you need this to work in your CMake builds:
if(APPLE)
include_directories(AFTER "/opt/X11/include")
endif()
That worked well for me.
I got it to install by copying the x11 header file directory to the /opt/local/include directory. Probably not the best way to work around it but quick and easy.
I found this thread while trying to compile ffmpeg from source on OS X. I needed --enable-x11grab and the homebrew build does not support this option.
I had XQuartz installed already but I kept getting errors from ./configure: ERROR: Xlib not found. I thought the answers here would solve my problem, but they did not!
So, if anyone is ever in the same boat, my solution was this:
I opened up the generated config.log and found lots of errors referring to various includes and header files, including X11/Xlib.h - this is misleading. At the very bottom of the logfile was the key, pkg-config was complaining about looking for xbc.pc, and requested that it be put on the path. However, the error message that is displayed on the terminal says nothing about pkg-config or xbc!
The solution is to add to your PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. Mine was nonexistent, so I just did export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig/ (the folder where I found xbc.pc).
I reran configure and everything worked like a charm!
TL;DR: check config.log - don't trust the terminal output!
Since the make file is looking for X11/xlib.h i.e., it is looking for X11 folder in the current directory, one way to solve this problem is to simply copy the /opt/X11/include/X11 directory to the directory that contains make file.
I have a virtual Debian system which I use to develop. Today I wanted to try llvm/clang. After installing clang I can't compile my old c-projects (with gcc).
This is the error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I uninstalled clang and it still did not work. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
Debian / Ubuntu
The problem is you likely only have the gcc for your current architecture and that's 64bit. You need the 32bit support files. For that, you need to install them
sudo apt install gcc-multilib
What helped me is to create a symbolic link:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/lib64
It seems that while you were playing with llvm/clang you(or the package manager) removed previously existing standard C library development package(eglibc on Debian) or maybe you didn't have it installed in the first place, thus you need to reinstall it, now that you reverted back to gcc.
You can do so like this on Debian:
aptitude show libc-dev
Ubuntu:
apt-get install libc-dev
On Ubuntu, if you don't have libc-dev, since I cannot find it on packages.ubuntu.com, you can try installing libc6-dev directly.
Or on Redhat like systems:
yum install glibc-devel
NB: Although you were briefly answered in the comments, here is an answer just so there is one on record in case someone encounters this one and might be looking for an answer, but not in the comments or the comment is not explicit enough for them.
This is a BUG reported in launchpad, but there is a workaround :
Run this to see where these files are located
$ find /usr/ -name crti*
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crti.o
then add this path to LIBRARY_PATH variable
$ export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:$LIBRARY_PATH
After reading the http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/LibraryPathOverview that jeremiah posted, i found the gcc flag that works without the symlink:
gcc -B/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu hello.c
So, you can just add -B/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu to the CFLAGS variable in your Makefile.
If you're using Debian's Testing version, called 'wheezy', then you may have been bitten by the move to multiarch. More about Debian's multiarch here: http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch
Basically, what is happening is various architecture specific libraries are being moved from traditional places in the file system to new architecture specific places. This is why /usr/bin/ld is confused.
You will find crt1.o in both /usr/lib64/ and /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ now and you'll need to tell your toolchain about that. Here is some documentation on how to do that; http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/LibraryPathOverview
Note that merely creating a symlink will only give you one architecture and you'd be essentially disabling multiarch. While this may be what you want it might not be the optimal solution.
To get RHEL 7 64-bit to compile gcc 4.8 32-bit programs, you'll need to do two things.
Make sure all the 32-bit gcc 4.8 development tools are completely installed:
sudo yum install glibc-devel.i686 libgcc.i686 libstdc++-devel.i686 ncurses-devel.i686
Compile programs using the -m32 flag
gcc pgm.c -m32 -o pgm
stolen from here : How to Compile 32-bit Apps on 64-bit RHEL? - I only had to do step 1.
As explained in crti.o file missing , it's better to use "gcc -print-search-dirs" to find out all the search path. Then create a link as explain above "sudo ln -s" to point to the location of crt1.o
This worked for me with Ubuntu 16.04
$ export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
./configure --disable-multilib
works for it
On Alpine Linux that would mean that you need musl-dev:
apk add musl-dev
Although in my case the messages were:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/11.2.1/../../../../x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/bin/ld: cannot find Scrt1.o: No such file or directory
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/11.2.1/../../../../x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/bin/ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/11.2.1/../../../../x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/bin/ld: cannot find -lssp_nonshared: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Which are also caused by missing musl-dev.
Ran into this on CentOs 5.4. Noticed that lib64 contained the crt*.o files, but lib did not. Installed glibc-devel through yum which installed the i386 bits and this resolved my issue.
Even I got the same compilation error when I was cross compiling i686-cm-linux-gcc.
The below compilation option solved my problem
$ i686-cm-linux-gcc a.c --sysroot=/opt/toolchain/i686-cm-linux-gcc
Note: The sysroot should point to compiler directory where usr/include available
In my case the toolchain is installed at /opt/toolchain/i686-cm-linux-gcc directory and usr/include is also available in the same directory
I solved it as follows:
1) try to locate ctr1.o and ctri.o files by using find -name ctr1.o
I got the following in my computer: $/usr/lib/i386-linux/gnu
2) Add that path to PATH (also LIBRARY_PATH) environment variable (in order to see which is the name: type env command in the Terminal):
$PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux/gnu:$PATH
$export PATH
I had the same problem today, I solved it by installing recommended packages:
libc6-dev-mipsel-cross libc6-dev-mipsel-cross, libc-dev-mipsel-cross
This worked:
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-mipsel-cross
One magic command:
sudo apt install build-essential
Fixed everything for me even on Raspberry Pi.
In my case, the crti.o error was entailed by the execution path configuration from Matlab.
For instance, you cannot perform a file if you have not set the path of your execution directory earlier.
To do this: File > setPath, add your directory and save.
use gcc -B lib_path_containing_crt?.o
In my case Ubuntu 16.04 I have no crti.o at all:
$ find /usr/ -name crti*
So I install developer libc6-dev package:
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev
