As exiv2-config is marked as deprecated by Andreas, I would suggest to only use pkg-config. IMHO, pkg-config is ok, if there are troubles, it could be because of some scripts using it, but not pkg-config itself...

And, this will also solve the problem I mentionned in my email here :

But, in any case, it's true that there's something confusing in the 
configure script :
- first, EXIV2_CFLAGS and LIB_EXIV2 are defined :

EXIV2_CFLAGS="`$EXIV2_CONFIG --cflags`"
LIB_EXIV2="`$EXIV2_CONFIG --libs`"

- then, EXIV2_CFLAGS is redefined and a new EXIV2_LIBS is defined (and 
not LIB_EXIV2) :

EXIV2_CFLAGS=`$PKG_CONFIG --cflags "exiv2 >= 0.12"`
EXIV2_LIBS=`$PKG_CONFIG --libs "exiv2 >= 0.12"`

I don't know yet which one is the right one, but I guess we shouldn't 
have both LIB_EXIV2 and EXIV2_LIBS at the same time...
