Thanks!

The libzmq.pc pkg-config file has changed in 4.3.1 (I think from zeromq/libzmq#3336) to have the following line:

Requires.private:  libunwind

but there is no libunwind.pc file anywhere that I can find on macOS (I've checked high sierra and mojave), so downstream software that uses pkg-config to find zeromq fails to find it:

Package libunwind was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libunwind.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'libunwind', required by 'libzmq', not found

Maybe we can add a test invocation of pkg-config to the zeromq formula

Upstream's libunwind ships the pkgconfig file, so either fix the brew formula that builds it to install it, or disable libunwind in this formula

libunwind functionality is provided by macOS; this might be a time to add a libunwind.pc to https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/tree/master/Library/Homebrew/os/mac/pkgconfig

[scpeters]

I'm proposing to add libunwind.pc files to homebrew/brew in Homebrew/brew#5539

[bluca]

Ok. Note that if it's urgent you can disable libunwind manually with --disable-libunwind

[EricLambrecht]

@bluca Which command is supposed to be run with --disable-libunwind exactly?

[bluca]

that's for ./configure

[bluca]

Also I see the libunwind flags are set manually via ENV - it would be sufficient to remove those so that autoconf doesn't find it

[bluca]

There's something I don't quite follow: the Requires.private are filled by autoconf ONLY if the dependency is found VIA pkg-config - in other words, if there's no libunwind.pc, there won't be a Requires.private: libunwind.
If I understand correctly there's no libunwind.pc at the moment - so how exactly is it being found at build time?
As the autoconf file currently is, unless libunwind.pc is found, it won't even build with libunwind - there's no fallback at all.

[scpeters]

Specifying the flags seems to make the configure script think that a .pc file exists.

[scpeters]

Ok, I just submitted a PR to disable libunwind in the zeromq formula until we figure this out.

[bluca]

That's really strange, it's the pkgconfig m4 macro that's used and that should just fail if the pc is not found, is homebrew shipping a custom one?
