subparts of Qt the program uses.
## Pcap
## Dependencies using config tools
The pcap library does not ship with pkg-config at the time or writing
but instead it has its own `pcap-config` util. Meson will use it
automatically:
CUPS, LLVM, PCAP, WxWidgets, libwmf, and GnuStep either do not provide
pkg-config modules or additionally can be detected via a config tool
(cups-config, llvm-config, etc). Meson has native support for these tools, and
then can be found like other dependencies:
```meson
pcap_dep = dependency('pcap', version : '>=1.0')
```
## CUPS
The cups library does not ship with pkg-config at the time or writing
but instead it has its own `cups-config` util. Meson will use it
automatically:
```meson
cups_dep = dependency('cups', version : '>=1.4')
llvm_dep = dependency('llvm', version : '>=4.0')
```
## LibWMF
The libwmf library does not ship with pkg-config at the time or writing
but instead it has its own `libwmf-config` util. Meson will use it
automatically:
Some of these tools (like wmf and cups) provide both pkg-config and config
tools support. You can force one or another via the method keyword:
```meson
libwmf_dep = dependency('libwmf', version : '>=0.2.8 ')
wmf_dep = dependency('wmf', method : 'config-tool')
```
