------------------
From: Tao Chen chen.dylane@linux.dev
[ Upstream commit 7b128f1d53dcaa324d4aa05d821a6bf4a7b203e7 ]
The tool pkg-config used to check libtraceevent and libtracefs, if not installed, it will report the libs not found, even though they have already been installed.
Before: libtraceevent is missing. Please install libtraceevent-dev/libtraceevent-devel libtracefs is missing. Please install libtracefs-dev/libtracefs-devel
After: Makefile.config:10: *** Error: pkg-config needed by libtraceevent/libtracefs is missing on this system, please install it.
