selecting libjpeg or libjpeg-turbo

[thorsteinssonh]

By default the package links against libjpeg on my ubuntu 16.04. However, libjpeg-turbo8 is also available. I was hoping that the turbo library would be selected at compile time, but it seems go-libjpeg favours libjpeg, at least on my system. In the cgo header somwhere I noticed there is a "-ljpeg" presumably this will therefore only link against libjpeg. Could you advice how I would select libjpeg-turbo instead?

Cheers,
Hrob.

Hi Hrob,

You probably solved that issue by now. But everybody else who's looking for an answer:
CGO_LDFLAGS="-L/tmp/libjpeg-turbo/lib64" CGO_CPPFLAGS="-I/tmp/libjpeg-turbo/include" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/tmp/libjpeg-turbo/lib64" go run main.go
would work fine. But of course you have to find the appropriate folders for libjpeg-turbo on your system first and replace them in the string above.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction EAX/N3o
