Daiane has asked for it to be tested and applied in master as we don't
do fixes in danny without doing those in master before. So all
development and fixes need to be done in master *before*. After it has
been done in master fixes can be backported to danny.

Right. Your patch is not fully complete so I prepared a new one which
should work fine for you but also fix other problems.

Your analisys is right but some other issues need fix as well:

   * The pkgconfig file provided is the same provided by
      fsl-mm-codeclib-dev so we cannot duplicate this file, instead we add a
      depends on fsl-mm-codeclib-dev to provide a single pkgconfig file;

    * Disable debug split as the binaries are stripped;

    * Set PACKAGE_ARCH to MACHINE_ARCH as this binaries are machine
      specific;

So I will send a patch to the mailing list and I will Cc you. Please
give this a try and confirm if it works for you.

Regards,
