	Meelis Roos reported a {menu,n}config regression: "I have libncurses devel package installed in the default system location (as do 99%+ on actual developers probably) and in this case, pkg-config is useless. pkg-config is needed only when libraries and headers are installed in non-default locations but it is bad to require installation of pkg-config on all the machines where make menuconfig would be possibly run." For {menu,n}config, do not use pkg-config if it is not installed. For {g,x}config, keep checking pkg-config since we really rely on it for finding the installation paths of the required packages.

2018-07-17	kconfig: check for pkg-config on make {menu,n,g,x}config	Randy Dunlap	1	-0/+8
	Each of 'make {menu,n,g,x}config' uses (needs) pkg-config to make sure that other required files are present and to determine build flags settings, but none of these check that pkg-config itself is present. Add a check for all 4 of these targets and update Documentation/process/changes.rst to mention 'pkg-config'.
