That would be nice, but the package developers are not on our payroll. They do not cater for our odd requirements. > > I was thinking there might be a better way.

Why would pkg-config be incorrect? Sometimes, standard systems are too rigid. Things clash. Sometimes, you have to bend the accepted practices to get very odd bunches of software to work together. So you work in an odd environment. The Gnu build system handles this very well. It gives you options to tweak anything. In comparison, Go is rigid, and becoming more rigid. It assumes too much sameness on development platforms. Why would pkg-config be incorrect? Who cares. I just want to be able to fix it, when I need to.
