pkg-config does not include required components from dependencies

[azeey]

Environment

• OS Version: Ubuntu 24.04
• Source or binary build? gz-utils3

Description

• Expected behavior: The pkg-config file generated for a project to include required components from dependencies.
• Actual behavior: The generated file only includes the required core library of the dependency, but not any additional required components

Steps to reproduce

1. Add the line

gz_find_package(gz-utils3 REQUIRED COMPONENTS log)

Right before gz_configure_build in

gz-cmake/examples/core_nodep/CMakeLists.txt

Line 7 in 3b33067

gz_configure_build(QUIT_IF_BUILD_ERRORS)

3. Assuming you have gz-utils3-log installed, build project and read the contents of cmake/pkgconfig/gz-core_no_deps.pc in the build directory. You should see

prefix=${pcfiledir}/../../
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include/gz/core_no_deps0

Name: Gazebo core_no_deps
Description: A set of core_no_deps classes for robot applications
Version: 0.1.0
Requires: gz-cmake4 >= 1.1 gz-utils3
Requires.private: 
Libs: -L${libdir} -lgz-core_no_deps 
Libs.private: 
CFlags: -I${includedir} -std=c++11

In the Requires clause, there is gz-utils3, but not gz-utils3-log.

I noticed this too. I think the fix needs to be in the following lines of gz-config.cmake.in:

• gz-config.cmake.in:151-168

gz_pkg_config_entry is called once with the package name, but we should collect the names of required components and include those as well in a space-separated string (like gz-utils3 gz-utils3-log). This could be done by:

• adding a gz_pkg_config_append_entry macro and calling that within the component for loop
• or constructing the space-separated list of requirements in the for loop and moving the call to gz_pkg_config_entry after the for loop
