When I try to make pkg-config, I get an error. I want to install a bioinformatic tool on my mac. I am fairly new to this so I might be making a fatal mistake. Would appreciate any help! thanks!

It looks like you're compiling on Linux and also targeting Linux. Currently this requires the `pkg-config` utility to find OpenSSL but unfortunately `pkg-config` could not be found. If you have OpenSSL installed you can likely fix this by installing `pkg-config`.
pkg-config is a helper tool used when compiling applications and libraries. It helps you insert the correct compiler options on the command line so an application can use gcc -o test test.
On most systems, pkg-config looks in /usr/lib/pkgconfig , /usr/share/pkgconfig , /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and /usr/local/share/pkgconfig for these files. It will additionally look in the colon-separated (on Windows, semicolon-separated) list of directories specified by the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
pkgconfig is a Python module to interface with the pkg-config command line tool for Python 3.3+. It can be used to. find all pkg-config packages >>> packages = pkgconfig.list_all() check if a package exists >>> pkgconfig.exists('glib-2.0') True.
I guess you’re trying to build pkg-config with option --with-internal-glib enabled. If so, then you’ll have to add the following linker (in LDFLAGS) options to the configure script -framework CoreFoundation and -framework Carbon, so you will build glib static and then pgk-config can make use of it.
In resume: env LDFLAGS="-framework CoreFoundation -framework Carbon" ./configure --with-internal-glib.
PS: Considere to edit your problem description and insert more context to your problem.
PPS: Pkg-Config version 0.29.1 has fixed this problem.
