About:
Flagpoll is a tool for developers to use meta-data files for storing
information on what is needed to compile their software. Think of it as
the rpm of software development. It provides developers with total control
over which packages, versions, architectures, et cetera that they want to
use meta-data from. Instead of specifying other packages' cflags and
ldflag manually, you can call `flagpoll mylib --cflags --ldflags` and it
will retrieve the flags for its package as well as its dependencies.  

Changes:
A new no-deps option addresses problems when building software for which
you want to manually break out all the dependencies of a package, or just
need information about the package and don't need flagpoll to make sure
there is a valid installation available. A new concat option lets you
specify multiple variables that you want to get information about and
return them all together on one line. A new keep-dups option lets the user
decide what to do with all of the duplicated output, which is useful for
linking lines that mix dynamic and static linking on the output line.
