The example app makefiles have been reworked\nto take account of this support, but the build of them against the .pc file\nwas not regularly tested.\n\nTo rectify this, and give us greater confidence in the correctness of the\n.pc file, this set adds in the sample apps to the installation set for\n\"ninja install\" and then builds a subset of those apps against the\npkg-config file to test it. In the process a small error when compiling\nthe cmdline sample app using the .pc file was fixed.\n\nBruce Richardson (4):\n  examples: install examples as part of ninja install\n  examples: simplify getting list of all examples\n  devtools/test-meson-builds: add testing of pkg-config file\n  build: add libbsd to pkg-config file if enabled\n\n config/meson.build            | 10 ++++------\n devtools/test-meson-builds.sh | 17 +++++++++++++++++\n examples/meson.build          | 17 +++++++++++++----\n meson.build                   |  2 ++\n 4 files changed, 36 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-)"
