Description James Henstridge 2005-04-13 08:24:45 UTC 
This is strictly a bug in pkg-config, but I though you might want to know about
it since it affects this module (I haven't reproduced it elsewhere), and it can
be worked around.

The configure script appears to hang, using 100% CPU on "Checking for
GSTPROPS_LIBS ...", and pkg-config doesn't return.  It seems that pkg-config
hangs due to the repeated module names (the repeated modules are unnecessary,
and possibly a bug).

I'll attach a patch that works around the pkg-config bug.
