Interface to .pc file interface via libpkgconf
Many libraries in compiled languages such as C or C++ provide ".pc" files to specify the flags required for compiling and linking against those libraries. Traditionally, the command line program "pkg-config" is used to query these files. PkgConfig::LibPkgConf provides a Perl level API using "libpkgconf" to these files. PkgConfig::LibPkgConf provides a simplified interface for getting the existence, version, cflags and library flags needed for compiling against a package, using the default compiled in configuration of "pkgconf". For a more powerful, but complicated interface see PkgConfig::LibPkgConf::Client. In addition, PkgConfig::LibPkgConf::Util provides some useful utility functions that are also provided by "pkgconf".
