Re: garnome-2.11-20050630.2240: configuring evolution fails

It now looks like the problem is with pkg-config and not the pkg-config
files. 

I tried running the pkg-config command in question using an older
version of pkg-config

   /opt/garnome-2.11-20050616.1615/pkg-config --libs gnome-pilot-2.0

which yielded the expected result.

Hmmm... Why is that? "We" did bump up the version of pkgconfig from 0.15
to 0.17.2. I need to poke at this some more.
