Description of problem: Development packages which provide .pc files often require .pc files (and headers, and libraries) provided by other development packages. Fedora Core's pkgconfig package (at least as of 1:0.15.0-6) can be used to query this information.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 8.0.34-1 How reproducible: Always Additional info: This came up on fedora-maintainers. Added here in part for tracking.
