I kind of hate pkg-config. Well not kind of, rather a lot actually. pretty much any packages that I have trouble building use it. it seems like a nice idea, but it doesn't seem to be sufficiently standardized to actually work well across distros (and even versions of the same distro)

I'm looking to make packages for Gambit-related projects of mine, and I noticed Arch linux in particular renames gsc and gsi to other names. Is there a way for an external project to query gsc's and gsi's new names?
If not, I think Gambit should use pkg-config https://en. wikipedia.org/wiki/Pkg-config
I have made a patch off of master (attached) which solves my immediate problems.
Please let me know what you think.
