I added a feature(command line option) for the vala compiler:
-p, --pkg-config-args=ARGS Pass ARGS to pkg-config utility
to pass customized arguments to pkg-config utility.
For example, we can use this to static compile a gtk program with valac:
valac test_static.vala -p "--static --li
Sorry for the word wrapping problem in my last message. This is my patch:
