Fedora 26 replaces the system pkg-config implementation with pkgconf because it "provides better support for handling .pc files and a stable library ABI/API for integrating into applications." and is actively maintained, unlike pkg-config. pkgconf aims to offer many improvements over pkg-config such as faster/more efficient dependency resolver which "allows for the user to more conservatively link their binaries -- which may be helpful in some environments, such as when prelink(1) is being used. pkgconf also aims to provide a more complete implementation of pkg-config. The features most likely to benefit the Yocto Project build system are the faster/more efficient dependency resolution and linker flag optimisation.
