Their explanation is attached below along with your original report.
If this explanation is unsatisfactory and you have not received a

I understand that suggesting pkg-config might reduce the prevalence of
this bug, but how would that solve it?
There is no solution to the problem of 'optional dependencies'; this is
the best you're going to get.
Ben.
If by 'optional dependencies' you mean assuming a feature provided by a
package on which the dependency is not declared as absolute, there are
certainly solutions; declare the dependency as absolute or stop assuming
the feature's presence.
Note that the absence of a solution for a bug, even if it would be real,
would not solve the bug.
