Hi!

I've installed webkitgtk+ to a custom profile, and the etc/profile file
does not contain any "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH...".
Because of this,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ pkg-config --cflags webkit2gtk-4.0
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

fails to find anything.

Is this a bug?

Search paths are properties of the packages that consume them.  Adding
"pkg-config" to the profile will populate PKG_CONFIG_PATH for that
profile.
