Travis Build fails wanting PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_CROSS=1

[mmstick]

Having an odd issue where Travis fails to build with the error:

Cross compilation detected. Use PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_CROSS=1 to override

Even though I have it specified as a global environment variable in the file:

env:
  global:
    - CRATE_NAME=tv-renamer
    - GTK=3.18
    - PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_CROSS=1
    - LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/local/lib/"
    - PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/local/lib/pkgconfig"

Any ideas on how to get this working?

Cross doesn't pass the host environment variables to the docker image that does the build. You can whitelist the ones you want to pass through.

if there were a way to set environment variables, that would be really helpful :)
