WIthout pkgconfig installed I've got following error while emerging (configure phase): checking for doxygen... no checking if Doxygen documentation should be built... no checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-pkg-config... no checking for pkg-config... no checking for LIBNL1... no configure: error: in `/var/tmp/portage/net-wireless/wimax-tools-1.4.5/work/wimax-tools-1.4.5': 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 environment variables LIBNL1_CFLAGS and LIBNL1_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. To get pkg-config, see <http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/>. See `config.log' for more details
