    <description><![CDATA[Many software packages use pkg-config to determine if the required dependencies are available on the system. Because pkg-config requires that the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH to be set, these software packages, in turn, require users to manually set this environment variable. Just as it is common for libraries to be installed into "/usr/local/lib" and Ubuntu now includes "/usr/local/lib" in the default library search path, it is now common to find software packages making use of pkg-config, and it would be incredibly convenient if PKG_CONFIG_PATH were already set.<br />
