When I explain them that there are different linux distributions do exist, so that's why there are more opportunities in the linux side, they are against me and they don't like that idea. They don't like to give up their wisdom "always work" into "we need to make it work". | |

if [ "foo$PKGCONFIG" != "foo" ]; you can also test $? to check whether which inside the command substitution succeeded (except when initializing a local variable).
