Hello bitman,

libjpeg8 upstream does not provide a *.pc and there is no requirement for 
upstream to do
so, and I am not at liberty to add a .pc file to the Debian package if it is 
not in the
upstream package, because this would make Debian incompatible with other 
distribution.

I am sure Anjuta is able to deal with libraries which does not provide .pc file 
in some
way.
