FreshPorts -- devel/pkg-config

The pkg-config program is used to retrieve information about installed libraries in the system. It is typically used to compile and link against one or more libraries. It's more useful to the compilation process than to the end-user. pkg-config retrieves information about packages from special metadata files. These files are named after the package, with the extension .pc. By default, pkg-config looks for these files in the following directories: ${PREFIX}/libdata/pkgconfig, ${PREFIX}/lib/pkgconfig, ${LOCALBASE}/libdata/pkgconfig, and ${LOCALBASE}/lib/pkgconfig; it will also look in the list of directories specified by the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

To install the port: cd /usr/ports/devel/pkg-config/ && make install clean
To add the package: pkg_add -r pkg-config

Fix a crash that can occur if a package has a non-empty Conflicts: line (e.g. silc). Reported by: Tuc at T-B-O-H.NET <ml@t-b-o-h.net> Obtained from: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13265 Approved by: portmgr (implicit)

- Set --mandir and --infodir in CONFIGURE_ARGS if the configure script supports them. This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS. - Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too. - Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man - Define INFO_PATH where necessary - Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and subdirectory detection.

devel/pkgconfig -> devel/pkg-config Rename this ports to use the real vendor package name. The advantage of this is to allow our users' keyword search works and easier for users to file the Bugzilla report when they use our name of ports. Debian, Gentoo, NetBSD and other OSs have the correct package name, but not in our ports tree. My team, FreeBSD GNOME Team, have agreed with it. As for other ports, chase the rename.
