Please let me know when you've had the chance of testing it. If it

I think we still officially support dependencies that didn't use
pkg-config (and they they started using it), but I think it would
indeed make sense to start requiring pkg-config to simplify both the
management and errors in different environments.

I see that README.postgis does mention that protobuf-c is necessary
for ST_AsMVT and ST_AsGeoBuf. How would you reword it to make it
clearer?
