conditionalizing variables

[Stefan Seefeld]

Hello,

I'm using pkg-config with a project that provides both, dynamic as well 
as static libraries. I'm looking for ways to allow users to decide 
whether to link statically or dynamically. What is the best way to 
achieve that ?

I'm pondering to define two variables:

libs_dynamic = -lfoo -lbar
libs_static = -Wl,-Bstatic -lfoo -lbar -Wl,-Bdynamic

Is there a way to conditionalize sections of a .pc file, for example to 
define the 'Libs:' keyword either via ${libs_dynamic} or ${libs_static}, 
depending on some command-line option ?

For example, could the .pc file itself contain conditionals, such as

ifeq (a, b)
variable = some value
else
variable = other value
fi

Thanks,
		Stefan
