Hi

I'm developing a library which depends on another library (boost regex); now for my library I provide a pkgconfig file so that the user can use pkgconfig for having the right settings for headers and library. However, the user must also be aware that he must also search for boost regex library (which, by the way, does not provide a pkgconfig file).

So, would it be better to provide an autoconf macro searching both for my library and the required libraries?

It's the first time I'm developing such a library.

thanks in advance
        Lorenzo
