Subject: [PATCH] configure: Move the error message for pkg-config earlier
Once pkg-config cannot be found, there's no point in running the rest
of the configure script since it will just spew a bunch of errors due
to missing pkg-config.
So, stop early and let the user know that pkg-config needs to be
installed.
