W10/MSYS2 problem building ART with LCMS2 fast-float plugin

Software ART

@agriggio
Being no longer able to log on bitbucket and to open a bug report in ART repo, I post it here.

1- I finally succeeded to build the fast float plugin using the ./configure procedure instead of using the Meson procedure.

2-files of generated LCMS2 package

./bin:
		jpgicc.exe liblcms2-2.dll liblcms2_fast_float-1.dll linkicc.exe psicc.exe tificc.exe transicc.exe
	./include:
		lcms2.h lcms2_fast_float.h lcms2_plugin.h
	./lib:
		liblcms2.a liblcms2.dll.a liblcms2.la
		liblcms2_fast_float.a liblcms2_fast_float.dll.a liblcms2_fast_float.la
		./lib/pkgconfig:
			lcms2.pc
	./share:
		./share/man:
				./share/man/man1:
					jpgicc.1 linkicc.1 psicc.1 tificc.1 transicc.1

3- it is installed in a specific location acceded with:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="<LCMS2packageDir>/lib/pkgconfig:"$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

Do you know what is happening?
Thanks

Hi,
Might be that cmake finds a wrong version of lcms2? Did you run cmake from a new build dir or did you try to reuse a previous build dir? Where did you install lcms?

Hi Alberto

The build dir is a new build dir : the old one is deleted and a new one created.

The package is installed in
/d/programmes/lcms2source/skylake
It has the structure as described above in point 2 and the path is added to PKG_CONFIG_PATH as described in 3

There is also a LCMS2 package inside MINGW64 as it is a dependency required by other packages.
This package has no fast float plugin so the Libs line of the MINGW64 lcms2.pc is Libs: -L${libdir} -llcms2
and contains nothing like -llcms2_fast_float

I built the last version of lcms2 master branch commit e71aeb6d8ad.
What is the commit you use?
Thanks
