Hi Jeremy,

I don't think this is the same issue because as far as I can tell this
is not an issue of running the wrong package config, rather knowing
how to use the data in it.  When I fun configure in an OE build,
$PKG_CONFIG does not seem to be defined.

This is what I came up with:

--- font-misc-misc-1.0.0.orig/configure.ac      2008-04-25
13:47:56.000000000 -0400
+++ font-misc-misc-1.0.0/configure.ac   2008-04-25 13:48:10.000000000 -0400
