Description Steve Wolter 2011-09-22 08:19:42 UTC 
Created attachment 211 [details]
Patch for eigen2-2.0.16 that fixes the issue.

The pkg-config file of Eigen2 declares a fixed include path like

Cflags: -I/usr/include/eigen2

while standard practice is to declare it with variables, like:

prefix=/usr
includedir=${prefix}/include
Cflags: -I${includedir}/eigen2

Cross-compiling tools like dpkg-cross rely on the standard layout to re-base compiler and linker paths from /usr to /usr/${triplet} and can't perform their job if the path is fixed.

I've attached a patch to fix this issue.
