i debated that, but i'd rather not split the canonical pkg-config package into |
19 |
(quite literally) two files. it makes upgrading dev-util/pkgconfig more of a |
20 |
hassle, and having these re-implementations take care of things themselves |
21 |
seems to be easier atm. if that ends up not being the case, we can always |
22 |
revisit ... the current implementation doesn't preclude splitting. |
