Bug report

In configure.ac we have several fallbacks when pkg-config is missing or a package does not provide a .pc file. The fallbacks do not take custom cflags into account. For example the block for zlib does AC_CHECK_HEADERS([zlib.h]) and AC_CHECK_LIB([z]) without setting CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $ZLIB_CFLAGS" first.

    @erlend-aasland is there anything left to do? I think we are done here.

    AFAICS, yes. Let's close it. If another issue surfaces, we can always open a new ticket, or just reopen this.
