Just in case somebody still ponders this, please take into account that pkg-config works even for people on Windows who use MSVC (the command-line tools, not the IDE), with no libtool or Unix-like functionality (shell scripts, Perl scripts) in sight at all. Not that I know if any MSVC users who use for instance GTK actually use pkg-config in their build process... it might be that pkg-config is too Unixish for them. They probably prefer to hardcode paths into makefiles. --tml _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
