Bug Description

Hi,

When developing a QT application with the library opencv for example, I just add the following lines in the .pro

unix {
    CONFIG += link_pkgconfig
    PKGCONFIG += opencv
}

It would be nice to do the same for qwt

Regards

Stephane

Note that qwt does already generate a .pc (pkgconfig) file all you need to do is comment out:
    #QWT_CONFIG += QwtPkgConfig
At the bottom of qwtconfig.pri

It would be good if ubuntu could include this .pc file in packages to avoid autoconfig errors when trying to build 3rdparty packages...
