libgcrypt-config(1)


NAME

   libgcrypt-config  -  script  to  get  information  about  the installed
   version of libgcrypt.

SYNOPSIS

   libgcrypt-config  [--prefix[=DIR]]  [--exec-prefix[=DIR]]   [--version]
   [--libs] [--cflags] [LIBRARIES]

DESCRIPTION

   libgcrypt-config  is  a tool that is used to configure to determine the
   compiler and linker flags that should  be  used  to  compile  and  link
   programs  that  use  libgcrypt.  It  is also used internally to the .m4
   macros for GNU autoconf that are included with libgcrypt.

OPTIONS

   libgcrypt-config accepts the following options:

   --version
           Print the currently  installed  version  of  libgcrypt  on  the
           standard output.

   --libs  Print  the  linker flags that are necessary to link a libgcrypt
           program.

   --cflags
           Print the compiler  flags  that  are  necessary  to  compile  a
           libgcrypt program.

   --prefix=PREFIX
           If  specified,  use  PREFIX  instead of the installation prefix
           that libgcrypt was built with when computing the output for the
           --cflags  and  --libs options. This option is also used for the
           exec prefix if --exec-prefix was  not  specified.  This  option
           must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.

   --exec-prefix=PREFIX
           If  specified,  use  PREFIX  instead  of  the installation exec
           prefix that libgcrypt was built with when computing the  output
           for  the  --cflags  and  --libs  options.   This option must be
           specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
