I've downgraded this bug because it is a feature request. It's not as if
mbedtls is the only library which doesn't support pkg-config :)

As you have seen there has been an open upstream issue about this for
almost 3 years. I will see what I can do about it, but I would not
expect it to be fixed soon.

The geany-plugins and gitgo breakage seems like a libgit2 bug. libgit2
should not have a "Requires.private: mbedtls" directive which will
obviously not work. Use Libs.private instead until this bug is fixed.
