Public bug reported:
No pkg-config file in libdocopt-dev. It causes build process failed
because it relies on finding a library via pkg-config:
Steps to reproduce:
$ git clone g...@github.com:openzim/zim-tools.git
$ cd zim-tools/
$ mkdir build
$ cd build/
$ meson ..
Actual result:
The Meson build system
Version: 0.45.1
Source dir: /home/alex/tmp/zim-tools
Build dir: /home/alex/tmp/zim-tools/build
Build type: native build
Project name: zim-tools
Native C compiler: ccache cc (gcc 7.5.0 "cc (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)
7.5.0")
Native C++ compiler: ccache c++ (gcc 7.5.0 "c++ (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)

Native dependency libzim found: YES 6.1.4
Dependency rt found: NO
meson.build:20:0: ERROR: Native dependency 'docopt' not found
(please, don't mind this 'rt' library absence, it's OK).
In /home/alex/tmp/zim-tools/build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt:
Determining dependency 'docopt' with pkg-config executable
'/usr/bin/pkg-config'

Expected result:
Meson should find libdocopt via pkg-config
Additional info
$ dpkg -L libdocopt-dev | grep pc
