mdbtools 0.6pre1 requires pkgconfig but doesn't declare dependency on it

Description

Hi, I'm trying to install mdbtools on an OSX10.5 machine (64 bit) with Xcode 3.1.4. I get the following error:

$ sudo port install mdbtools
Password:
--->  Computing dependencies for mdbtools
--->  Configuring mdbtools
Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command failed (see log for details)
Log for mdbtools is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_databases_mdbtools/main.log
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

The log (attached) reports problems with the installs of glib and pkg-config. However, they're both in the dependencies path, and I've installed both on my system elsewhere.

I'm using MacPorts to install due to problems with installation from tar.gz and cvs.

Any ideas of what's going on here? Patches? Thanks!

MacPorts does not use things installed on your system elsewhere; it only uses things installed by MacPorts.

I've added the pkgconfig dependency to mdbtools in r79744 which should resolve this. I also changed flex and bison from library dependencies to build dependencies because AFAICT they're only used at build time.
