`pkgconf` is a program which helps to configure compiler and linker flags for
development libraries. It is similar to pkg-config from freedesktop.org.
`libpkgconf` is a library which provides access to most of `pkgconf`'s functionality, to allow
other tooling such as compilers and IDEs to discover and use libraries configured by
pkgconf.

If, for example, you use environment variables such as `PKG_CONFIG_SYSTEM_[INCLUDE|LIBRARY]_PATH`

to those paths, it is not a `pkgconf` problem -- `pkgconf` is doing exactly what you told
it to do.

## compiling `pkgconf` and `libpkgconf` with CMake (usually for Windows)
pkgconf is compiled using CMake on Windows. In theory, you could also use CMake to build
on UNIX, but this is not recommended at this time as it pkgconf is typically built much earlier
than CMake.
