I am trying to do it, but all I can get is some source code that I don't know how to do deal with I downloaded from http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/releases/ .
Any help?
Get the precompiled binaries from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/
Download pkg-config and its depend libraries :
This is a step-by-step procedure to get pkg-config working on Windows, based on my experience, using the info from Oliver Zendel's comment.
I assume here that MinGW was installed to C:\MinGW. There were multiple versions of the packages available, and in each case I just downloaded the latest version.
- go to http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/
- download the file pkg-config_0.26-1_win32.zip
- extract the file bin/pkg-config.exe to C:\MinGW\bin
- download the file gettext-runtime_0.18.1.1-2_win32.zip
- extract the file bin/intl.dll to C:\MinGW\bin
- go to http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/glib/2.28
- download the file glib_2.28.8-1_win32.zip
- extract the file bin/libglib-2.0-0.dll to C:\MinGW\bin
Now CMake will be able to use pkg-config if it is configured to use MinGW.
A alternative without glib dependency is pkg-config-lite.
Extract pkg-config.exe from the archive and put it in your path.
Nowdays this package is available using chocolatey, then it could be installed whith
choco install pkgconfiglite
I did this by installing Cygwin64 from this link https://www.cygwin.com/ Then - Wiew Full, Search gcc and scroll down to find pkg-config. Click on icon to select latest version. This worked for me well.
Another place where you can get more updated binaries can be found at Fedora Build System site. Direct link to mingw-pkg-config package is: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=354619
