How does it work:

- before executing commands (like invoking commandline), theide now scans the line for '`' characters and interprets them according to linux shell customs (executes the text within ` as shell command and replaces it with its output

- there is now new "pkg-config" group in package description (e.g. in Package organizer) where you are supposed to fill in the names of dev packages you wand to use (e.g. "gtk-3.0"). When building, the builder first scans all packages for all pkg-config entries that match current config, then adds appropriate strings to both compiler and linker commandlines (e.g. `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0`, `pkg-config --clibs gtk+-3.0`).
