[BioC] how to configure "pkgconfig"

[shen bairong]

Dear Steven:

Thank you very much for the help, I have downloaded
and installed pkg-cofig, can I have your help for the
usage of pkg-config, since it is my first time to use
pkg-config. 

Shoud I use ./configure 'pkg-config
--with-graphviz=DIR ' or should I modify the
configure.in file. 

Your help saved my lots of time, thanks!

Best wishes,
Bairong
