Bugzilla Bug 227575

checking for size_t... (cached) yes
checking for i686-pc-linux-gnu-pkg-config... no
checking for pkg-config... no
checking for SCIM... configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found
or is too old.  Make sure it
is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
path to pkg-config.

Alternatively you may set the SCIM_CFLAGS and SCIM_LIBS environment variables
to avoid the need to call pkg-config.  See the pkg-config man page for
more details.

To get pkg-config, see <http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig>.
See `config.log' for more details.
