I actually liked that and iirc implemented it for one or two packages.

Gniibe alreadt started with this but pkg-config will only be the second
choice.

> 2. Can you please add SYSROOT support for all dependencies? (npth, ksba, assuan)

Yes.  Makes a lot of sense and avoid surprises.

Yes.  

Would you be so kind and open a feature request?
