From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>

Each of 'make {menu,n,g,x}config' uses (needs) pkg-config to make sure
that other required files are present, but none of these check that
pkg-config itself is present.  Add a check for all 4 of these targets.

Fixes kernel bugzilla #77511:

v2: use 'command -v' instead of 'which'

I'm also OK with just documenting the pkg-config requirement in
Documentation/Changes (= Documentation/process/changes.rst).

I did not test this patch, but does this check work as expected?

Probably we want to run 'docheckpkgconfig'
before 'dochecklxdiag', '.tmp_gtkcheck', '.tmp_qtcheck', etc.
But, I do not see such dependencies.


Also, if we make 'pkg-config' mandatory,
should we entirely drop fall-back logics like follows?

Hi,

I'm willing to keep patching/testing on this, but both pkg-config and depmod
(for depmod, see: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198965)
are basic requirements IMO, so just documenting their requirements is good
enough to me, but might not be good enough for some users.

Comments?

Sorry for late comments.

OK, I am fine with making pkg-config a requirement.
(and it should be documented)

But, I'd like to clean-up scripts/kconfig/Makefile first.
It is already cluttered, and hesitate to add new code based on that.
I posted the patches.

Could you send v3 after the cleaning work is done?

Sure, I'll give it a try.
