Description:
When trying to automatically generate a 20-nvidia.conf file for xorg, nvidia-xconfig complains about a missing xorg-server.pc file.

Does xorg-server-devel need to be added as a dependency for nvidia-utils?
Installing xorg-server-devel gets rid of the warning from nvidia-xconfig.


Additional info:
* Linux archasus 3.13.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Mar 7 22:47:48 CET 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux

* nvidia-utils 334.21-3


Steps to reproduce:
% sudo nvidia-xconfig -o 20-nvidia.conf
