I was building some cairo demos the other day and received the  
following error:

Package freetype2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `freetype2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

It turns out that freetype2.pc is located in

   /sw/lib/freetype219/lib/pkgconfig/

but the majority, although not quite all, of the .pc files are in

   /sw/lib/pkgconfig

Is this a bug in the freetype2 package or maybe the package which  
provides pkg-config ?  Seems like quite the good idea to put all of  
the pc files in one place.

P.S. Setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH does fix the problem.
