Comment (by precioso.p.gabrillo@…):

 Replying to [comment:20 ryandesign@…]:
 > I asked you to deactivate and re-activate the pkgconfig port to see if
 that would bring the `pkg-config` program back. You showed that you
 deactivated and re-activated the pkgconfig port, and then showed the
 output of `stat` and `which` commands which showed that the `pkg-config`
 program still did not exist.

 > Does the `pkg-config` program exist now? Please look in /opt/local/bin.
 If it does not exist, then we need to fix that before trying anything
 else, and if deactivating and re-activating did not work, then the next
 thing to try is rebuilding the port with:
 >
 > {{{
 > sudo port clean pkgconfig
 > sudo port -n upgrade --force pkgconfig
 > }}}

 This is what I have:

 {{{
 /opt/local/bin

 -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  597864 Apr  7 16:19 pkg-config

 pkg-config: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
 }}}

 I do not have pkgconfig, just pkg-config.  Are they different?
 Have not tried the last 2 commands since pkg-config exists, I think.
