- Add support for setting sysroot through PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR in
the environment.
- Update included glib to 1.2.10.
- Other minor fixes, including a segfault.

- Make Requires.private a whole lot more useful by traversing the
whole tree, not just the top-level, for Cflags.
- Add support for using the system glib.
- Update URL to pkg-config website
- Fix some win32 problems.
- Other minor fixes.
on NetBSD, just assume that anything follows the ELF semantic and
has no leading underscore. This doesn't matter much as the module
support of glib is not used by pkg-config. Patch away the check for
ANSI library flags as we only support ANSI C compiler anyway. Move
the checks for the various inline keywords to compile-only. Always
fake the poll results, it doesn't really matter either.

- Fix some cosmetic output from pkg.m4
- Fix build problems with !gcc due to always passing -Wall
- Documentation fixes
- We now always add the Cflags from packages we depend on, whether
they are public or private dependencies. The discussion surrouding
this change can be found in http://bugs.debian.org/340904 .
- Add internal pkg-config package which can be queried for version
number and other information.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
- Fix test suite to work on Solaris. Yay non-POSIX /bin/sh :-(
- Fix segfault on --help with gcc4. Fix segfault on bigendian arches
in some cases.
- Win32 fixes
- Add --short-errors, now used by pkg.m4 if available. This gives a
better error message if some libraries can't be found.
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.

The inter-library dependencies check was too tight and caused
problems if one used the --no-undefined flag to libtool on Solaris
(since it there expands to -Wl,-z,defs which disallows undefined
symbols). Add a new name to .pc files: Libs.private which will
not be listed in the output of --libs unless --static is also
given.
Private libraries are libraries which are needed in the case of
static linking or on platforms not supporting inter-library
dependencies. They are not supposed to be used for libraries
which are exposed through the library in question. An example of
an exposed library is GTK+ exposing Glib. A common example of a
private library is libm.
Generally, if include another library's headers in your own, it's
a public dependency and not a private one.
Thanks a lot to James Henstridge for both the bug and the following
discussion.
