# PkgConfig uses the pkg-config negotiator to pick the best

# it gets the version, cflags and libs during either a
# "system" or "share" install.

  # items in the share block relate to building the package
  # from source.  It is called share because it will be
  # installed into a dist level share directory in your
  # perl lib.

  # The Download negotiator picks the best method for
  # downloading the package.  It uses the version
  # regex to parse out the version number from the
  # tarball so that it can pick the most recent
  # version.

  # The Autoconf plugin builds using the standard

  # (ie when you install the Alien::xz module)
  # matches the prefix during runtime
  # (ie when you use it from XZ::XS).
