Description Olav Vitters 2011-12-28 01:15:27 UTC 
configure.ac does the following:

GJS_CONSOLE=`$PKG_CONFIG --variable=gjs_console gjs-1.0`

However, pkg-config doesn't give an error if you do not have gjs-1.0 pkgconfig file installed. In that case GJS_CONSOLE is empty.

Think best solution is to have configure.ac check that the gjs-1.0 pkgconfig file exists.

The missing check resulted in an unnoticed missing buildrequire on Mageia and gnome-documents not starting.
