-This is a bit of a pain - see [http://www.mingw.org/wiki/FAQ MinGW FAQ] . The packages can be found [http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html here].  The easiest is to download the latest "All-in-one bundles" and extract it to C:\MinGW\msys\1.0  .
+Download pkg-config-lite from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pkgconfiglite/files/ (the latest binary should work) and extract it to your MinGW directory.
