Description Marc-André Laperle CLA 2015-11-11 18:18:07 EST 
I've seen several Makefiles and build scripts that invoke `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0` for example. I think it would be fairly easy to create an output parser that detects the pkg-config pattern, executes `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0` then parses the output to detect includes (reusing output parser).

I uploaded a small prototype here in case anyone needs this before I get to finish it:
