Concept idea based on manual work in Homebrew/core, e.g.

Library/Homebrew/cleaner.rb Outdated Show resolved Hide resolved
keg_only_pc_files = @formula.deps
.reject { |d| d.build? || d.test? }
.map(&:to_formula)
.select(&:keg_only?)

Perhaps controversial idea: I think this could be usefully done for all formulae, not just keg-only. We've debated for a while about whether we should try to support formulae when brew unlinked and, generally, I think we should.

Need to figure out if there is a way to deal with whitespaces in HOMEBREW_PREFIX as this will break pkgconfig file. If I can't figure out a way, can just skip the modification if we detect whitespaces.

There is also an odd case of pkgconfig file backslash handling, e.g.

Cflags: -I/this/\
is/a/single/path

results in:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=. pkg-config test --cflags
-I/this/is/a/single/path

May just ignore this for now until we find a scenario that needs it.
