Great. > The goal of the project is to convert the BSP cfg files from `make` format to > the > pkg-config (.pc) format. The goal is to be able to *create* complete and useful .pc files. I am not sure if the RTEMS build system could be turned around to use .pc, it may, but until then I suggest we convert the .cfg files in the BSPS to .pc files. > The approach would be to first make all the flags and > Makefile macros used in the bsp .cfg files, consistent.

This seems like a sensible approach. > I seek some guidance and discussion on the project to get started with it. I think the first step is to look at the existing .cfg files and to see what is happening. It will take time and is a bit boring but I feel you will quickly see which ones have major differences. I lot of files are copies so I suspect they will fall into patterns or groups.
