I am virtually positive pkg-config has a way (likely with quotes) to properly distinguish between these two cases, but I am going to have to find what that is and adjust the above parsing logic accordingly for the general fix.
Hi Phil: It turns out that the correct *.pc file syntax to handle blanks in pathnames is to quote all -L and -I options, e.g., -L"whatever blank". Could you send me all the *.pc files (wrapped in a tarball for my convenience) for the external libraries used by PLplot that you have installed with " - " in the pathname? Unless I am missing something those *.pc files will have " - " embedded in every pathname mentioned in those files. And if so, then I want to check that those pathnames are all quoted correctly.
