Comment (by Bruce Dubbs):

 Changes from previous version of pkgconf

 Changes from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1:

 * Fix processing of empty dependency lists.

 Changes from 2.4.3 to 2.5.0:

 * Added a manual page for bomtool.

 * Add support for preloaded packages.
   These are modules which are preloaded into the package database
   and preferred over searching the module search path when present.

 * Refactor Windows registry PKG_CONFIG_PATH support so that it
   augments the main directory search list instead of being treated
   as a special case.

 * Processing of `--with-path` arguments by the pkgconf CLI is
   now deferred until libpkgconf is fully initialized, effectively
   aligning behavior with PKG_CONFIG_PATH processing.

 * Fix several minor memory safety bugs which were identified by
   the GCC 15 static analyzer.

 * Added support for pledge(2) and unveil(2) on systems where
   this functionality is available.

 * Significant improvements to pkgconf's manual pages.

 * Remove questionable default-static assumption on Windows that
   was inherited from the original pkg-config.  Most distributions
   of pkgconf on Windows were already patching this out.

 * Add -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L to the build definitions, which
   is needed for readlinkat on glibc.
