config: better (i.e. more portable) test for libxml2
Over the weekend I tried to build on MacOS X¹ and ran into the following issues: 1) The recent change to autogen.sh to test for pkg-config falls down. 2) After removing the pkg-config test in autogen.sh, w/o pkg-config the PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro invocation in configure[.ac] falls down. N.B. Solaris users run into this too, even through there's a (broken) pkg-config package that can be installed. 3) There are other problems in the code related to fuse that are beyond the scope of this. It seems that pkg-config is only a requirement for the definition of the PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro used to detect libxml2. Since this seems to be inherently unportable — at least to MacOS X and Solaris — I'd like to: A) Change the use of the PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro to the more portable AM_PATH_XML2 macro provided by the libxml2 package in /usr/.../share/aclocal/libxml.m4 2) Revisit the decision to add the check for pkg-config in autogen.sh in BZ 921817. For now this is just an rfc. If people are agreeable I'll reenter this change against BZ 921817. ¹Mountain Lion 10.8.3, XCode 4.6.1 Change-Id: I237b1ed8919088345b8fd943423b2a6ad289981b BUG: 921817 Signed-off-by: Kaleb S.
