What is "pkgconf"?

package compiler and linker metadata toolkit

How to use this package

Quick install

Installs the package into the current environment for this session. Use --build or --runtime to persist it as a build-time or runtime dependency.

min add pkgconf

Declare as a task dependency in minimal.toml

Listing the package under tasks.<name>.packages makes it available inside that task’s sandbox.

[tasks.dev]
packages = ["pkgconf"]

Build-time vs runtime

Choose build-time for tools needed during compilation, runtime for dynamic libraries loaded at runtime.

min add --build pkgconf
min add --runtime pkgconf
