Description-en: Pure-Perl Core-Only replacement for pkg-config
PkgConfig provides a pure-perl, core-only replacement for the
pkg-config utility.
While pkg-config is a compiled binary linked with glib,
the pure-perl version has no such requirement, and will run
wherever Perl ( >= 5.6 ) does.
The package provides a pure perl binary called ppkg-config which
can be used as well as pkg-config.
