2.8.5 / 2023-10-22

Added

• New methods #lib_path and #include_path which point at the installed directories under ports. (by @flavorjones)
• Add config param for CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, which now defaults to Release. (#136 by @Watson1978)

Experimental

Introduce experimental support for MiniPortile#mkmf_config which sets up MakeMakefile variables to properly link against the recipe. This should make it easier for C extensions to package third-party libraries. (by @flavorjones)

• With no arguments, will set up just $INCFLAGS, $libs, and $LIBPATH.
• Optionally, if provided a pkg-config file, will use that config to more precisely set $INCFLAGS, $libs, $LIBPATH, and $CFLAGS/$CXXFLAGS.
• Optionally, if provided the name of a static archive, will rewrite linker flags to ensure correct linkage.

Note that the behavior may change slightly before official support is announced. Please comment on #118 if you have feedback.
