Agreed, at first that was the approach I went for, even went so far as
to sending a patch upstream for QEMU (before realizing that libgcrypt
upstream doesn't have pkgconfig). But upstream QEMU are not to
interested in having such change.
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/711018/
However since this is not really required for the QEMU in oe-core,
this patch can be dropped from the series and I will sort this out by
patching the configure in the QEMU recipe that needs this.
Should I send a v2 of this series which removes this patch?

Nathan
