Mozilla dependencies

Mozilla depends on libIDL, which depends on pkgconfig--and since Lunar's
GNOME 2 is in a nonstandard location, pkgconfig doesn't know where to
find it by default.

This is the terrible hack that I used to get it installed:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$(echo $(grep pkgconfig/ /var/log/lunar/install/*|cut -f2 -d:|sed 's/pkgconfig.*/pkgconfig/'|sort|uniq)|sed 's/ /:/g') lin mozilla

Perhaps there's a cleaner way to do this than simply looking for
everything named "pkgconfig" everywhere in the system? :-)
