[PLUG] pkg-config reports wrong library version

   Does anyone here know how to change the library version reported by
pkg-config when it's queried during the configure phase?

   My problem is that 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returns 2.8.6, when
2.12.1 is actually installed. The autotools get confused when they're told
one version is installed but they find a different version.

   Neither the man page nor the mail list archives on the freedesk web site
have anything helpful.
