Description Behdad Esfahbod 2006-11-21 17:14:16 UTC 
it seems too new to require.  we should work around the macro problems with
older versions instead.

    [configure] Remove the pkg-config minimum version requirement
    
    It was added in commit 157663e1fdf120a71c6cc8222b88d2915a5a73eb because there
    was a serious bug in the pkg.m4 file from pkg-config 0.18.  However, it was
    fixed two days later.  So, instead of requireing 0.18.1 or greater which is
    not available on Nokia 770 SDK, we just ignore the broken pkg-config 0.18.
    The problem only happens if one runs autogen.sh with against a broken
    pkg-config.  Configuring tarballs is not affected.
