From 9f8bf569bd545930847d12d176b5ef0690f0c0f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Pfaff Date: Wed, 22 Dec 2010 10:02:32 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] INSTALL.Linux: Make pkg-config a requirement to build. pkg-config is needed to detect the presence of libssl, so it is needed even if the build system doesn't need to be rebuilt. In theory we'd only need pkg-config if OpenSSL is to be used, but I don't see much point in being that explicit.
