[Bug 1037588] Re: Provide pkg-config pc files

Rebuilding the quantal package with the patch in this bug fixes the
problem.  I appreciate the reasons for not uploading this as an SRU but
I think the least we can do is to offer a quantal package in the
desktop-team PPA.

Meanwhile, upstream jhbuild tries very hard not to introduce depdencies
that would prevent it from building in stable releases of Ubuntu (being
one of its primary target platforms).  For example, our version of
libicu is totally fine (except for this bug) and the webkit and js185
dependencies you mention are listed in the "Optional" section above (and
indeed, jhbuild is happy to build those....)
