Hi all.
I maintain a fairly large application stack that moved from
automake to cmake some time ago, and uses pkgconfig
extensively.
Evidently a patch to support pkgconfig was proposed three years ago,
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libunistring/2015-01/msg00006.html
but the response was essentially "use autoconf, don't use pkgconfig".
I hate to break it to you, but the world no longer revolves around
autoconf, and not supporting pkgconfig makes downstream users'
lifes a bit more difficult. It might be time to consider that patch again.
