Not sure if that is possible, but there is no reason the precompiled versions of gem should depend on pkg-config. The java version does not depend on it, so hopefully this dependency can be avoided also for the other platforms.

There's another issue opened objecting to the license, and so we may remove
it entirely. Stay tuned.

@voxik The other issue is #1488

larskanis added a commit to larskanis/nokogiri that referenced this issue Jun 25, 2016
Using the pkg-config gem as a runtime dependency of nokogiri results in a
license conflict. pkg-config is LGPL but nokogiri is MIT.

Making the pkg-config gem optional solves this issue.

Fixes sparklemotion#1488 and sparklemotion#1496 .
