Indeed it is, thanks for looking into this!

The same problem occurs with hugin, which I am currently packaging; it uses
pkg-config, but there are error messages
   -- WARNING: you are using the obsolete 'PKGCONFIG' macro, use FindPkgConfig
So it is possible that pkg-config is used incorrectly there. In any case,
I feel less bad now about using the same work-around...
