Hi Anton, I am not sure I want to be maintainer for hpiview - especially since I don't know yet about the relation of hpiview and hpibrowser.
But I'll make a proposal for a new README file. For the pkg-config. I am a stupid user of these build tools. Can't we add a statement somewhere, so the hpi installation path is automatically added to PKG_CONFIG_PATH, before the make install calls pkg-config? Probably that's just my stupid newcomer's thinking.
