Dear Maintainer,
Trying to statically link an executable (like h5_write.c¹) against HDF5 using
the pkg-config profile fails:
$ gcc -static h5_write.c $(pkg-config --cflags hdf5) $(pkg-config --static
--libs hdf5)

Obviously the libraries on which HDF5 depends should be added to the
Libs.private and Requires.private fields.²
