yajl_s library not found when crosscompiling addon

    When trying to crosscompile a pvr addon with yajl as dependency I get the following error:

    After some investigation I found that the compiler was looking for the static library based on this line in the cmake file:

    Code
    find_library(YAJL_LIBRARY NAMES yajl_sPATHS ${PC_YAJL_LIBDIR})

    so after doing the following it works:

    Code
    cp build.LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.0-devel/yajl-2.1.0/.armv7ve-libreelec-linux-gnueabi/yajl-2.1.0/lib/libyajl_s.a build.LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.0-devel/toolchain/armv7ve-libreelec-linux-gnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib/

    However I would like solve the problem in a more elegant way, and not have to repeat the above each time I build the addon.
    How to achieve this?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I assume it is something with your host system (which is?) because it works for everybody else.

    Also parts of log doesn't help much to fix issues.

    Hi sorry my host system is:

    Code
    14:15:55 ⌁ [ijr:~/LibreELEC.tv] master(+2/-1,-8)* 1 ± uname -a
Linux archxps 4.9.11-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Feb 19 13:45:52 UTC 2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux


    here the complete log:

    In pvr.zattoo/package.mk file add this function which will change library name from libyajl_s.a to libyajl.a

    Code
    post_unpack() {
  sed -i 's|YAJL_LIBRARY NAMES yajl_s|YAJL_LIBRARY NAMES yajl|' $PKG_BUILD/FindYajl.cmake
}

    Sure, but this way I won't pick up the static library.
    What I want is to use yajl_s, (not yajl) in order to prevent a loop.
    Unfortunately yajl_s is not present in the toolchain path, only yajl is there.

    What? I just tried this and addon was build successfully.

    From what I see only static library is available in toolchain with name libyajl.a. It is renamed from original name libyajl_s.a here. If you still want original name then copy file in packages/devel/yajl/package.mk.

    ahha, ok got it!

    btw, I had already built the addon successfuly by manually changing "yajl_s" to "yajl" in FindYajl.cmake.
    Still I wanted to pick yajl_s and not yajl, because I didn't know it was the same.
    But thanks to you now I know!

    So, thanks a lot vpeter, you helped me as always!
