Edje isn't the problem. Lua upstream does not provide pkg-config files, so they
are added by each distro. Unfortunately, each distro does it differently, so
when
there's an update and a new pkg-config file, every build system for every
program
that uses it has to be updated. It's a ridiculous situation IMO.
