Overview

This plugin probes for compiler and linker flags using ExtUtils::CBuilder. This is a useful alternative to Alien::Build::Plugin::PkgConfig::Negotiate for packages that do not provide a pkg-config ".pc" file, or for when those ".pc" files may not be available. (For example, on FreeBSD, "libarchive" is a core part of the operating system, but doesn't include a ".pc" file which is usually provided when you install the "libarchive" package on Linux).
