If that fails, fall back to the old methods.so far I always tried to stay as far away from pkg-config as possible, but if that is used by distro maintainers then we should probably reconsider it.
I favour pkg-config too. It would make our lives a lot more simpler.
distro maintainers extremely prefer it over each package doing its own (limited testing) in build files (i.e. configure) or using legacy xxx-config scripts. pkg-config is way more reliable than either of those. -mike
