Do you mean that "pkg-config" is a MSYS package (as opposed to being a MinGW package)? In that case, it might be installed (or uninstalled) with mingw-get (if it was included in the package repository), because the package manager handles both MinGW and MSYS packages. I have two more questions: Manually installing a package consists of just expanding the compressed file under a suitable directory. But then, how can someone remove (or replace with a newer version) one package installed in such way? How can someone make a binary distribution of Emacs for Windows, using the new MSYS build system?
