Description-en: manage compile and link flags for libraries for amd64 architecture
pkg-config is a system for managing library compile and link flags that
works with automake and autoconf.
.
Increasingly libraries ship with ".pc" files that allow querying of the
compiler and linker flags needed to use them through the pkg-config(1)
program.
.
This is a dependency package providing cross pkg-config support for the
amd64 architecture.
