I really don't get that. I just checked and I have dev-util/pkgconfig-0.20 installed on my systems and they function normally. The command is pkg-config despite the Gentoo package being called pkgconfig. Please try emerging pkgconfig again. Also confirm you have a /usr/bin/pkg-config, you can confirm the version by passing --version to it.
executable was there (version 0.20.0). Anyway, I just re-emerged ...

Same for me
My pkg-config reports a version of 0.20, but I tested the script that tests for the version and it seems to cope just fine with 0.20.0 too. What version of bash do you have? Doubt it will affect it but the tests are done using the shell. I am at a loss - anyone else have any ideas on this one?
Sorry, 0.20 here, too. See comment #2.
boinc's _autosetup script seems kind of irrelevant for gentoo. How about by-passing it and run eautoreconf to directly build the Makefiles? Looking at it reveals it doesn't do more than what portage already does. Disclaimer notice : I haven't had the time to try it yet. Maybe later, time permiting.
Well trying it quickly here gave me failed running autoconf... So it would seem it is not a drop in replacement. I could have run _autosetup before producing the tarball I placed on the mirrors as I did last time, but I thought that this solution might be more generic. Feel free to take a closer look at the script and provide patches. Otherwise I will try to make some time this weekend to take a closer look.
The problem is in _autosetup on line 45. The awk script generates no output (the condition '(m*1)>0' evaluates as false) and _autosetup fails on next line.
Ahhhh, I think we all here use locale with comma-separated decimal point. Changing the period to comma in 'm=j[1]"."j[2]' produces the desired output of that awk script. Somebody should make that script locale independent.
Looking at what the script *actually* does I have added the necessary depends to the ebuild and called the tools directly. It works just fine here, but I would appreciate your feedback. Could be worth sending a patch upstream, I had forgotten any locales used commas as separators... I had looked at the awk script and couldn't figure out why it would fail! This should be fixed if you resync in about one hour. Please reopen if not.
WFM amd64. Thanks!
