Details

Imlib2 1.2.0 package installs /usr/lib/pkgconfig/imlib2.pc, but this one has a syntax error which leads to being unable to compile anything with imlib2 dependency.

Requires: @requirements@

I think the file is processed badly by autobuilds tool or even unprocessed at all.
This task depends upon

could you please explain it some more, what program doesn't compile and what errors do you exactly get.
Or if you already have a solution tell me :)

Hello, i traced the bug. It wasn't that hard, since it had been corrected in imlib2's cvs ;)

The problem is imlib2.pc.in has a variable @requirements@ that wasn't processed by libtool. The reason is libtool didn't knew a damn thing about that variable. Leaving imlib2.pc with a syntax error. So any package using pkgconfig to build against imlib2 was to fail at configure. Enlightenment 0.16.8 (from cvs) for example.

I attach a patch to configure.in that corrects things. And a patch to PKGBUILD to enable it at compile time.
