Compiler can't fetch shared library with version on it ! ( libfoo.so.x.y ) about zig HOT 3 OPEN

distros/packages are supposed to symlink libfoo.so to libfoo.so.X etc

from zig.

Does pkg-config (or the zig usage in the build system) not work for you use case? Why?

from zig.

No.. it's not the pkg-config because it give the correct flags

iscarioth$ pkg-config --cflags --libs glib-2.0
-I/usr/local/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -lglib-2.0 -lintl -lpcre2-8

it's more the zig usage in the build system which is not specific to OpenBSD, i just remember LLD was patched for matching versioned shared library ( https://github.com/openbsd/ports/blob/master/devel/llvm/17/patches/patch-lld_ELF_DriverUtils_cpp )

at src/link/Elf.zig, he only check up the (somewhere in lib dir)`/libglib-2.0.so ( only) ( src/main.zig on accesLibPath)
