</div>I agree with Jim. There seem to be two different approaches to<br>
dependency checking here (pkg-config's and RPM's), and they're<br>
not playing nice together.<br>

A rich ecosystem of Linux and other FOSS OS distros is nice, but<br>
this particular aspect (ninety-bajillion different forms of<br>
package management) can really suck sometimes. It does seem<br>
to be getting better, though, with stuff like aptitude and yum.<br>
