rsteinke has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm working on a Perl module which wraps a C++ library. As is common in the C/C++ world, the $CFLAGS and $LIBS arguments are provided by a config script:

foo-config --version foo-config --cflags foo-config --libs

Is there some existing Perl module that will check for a minimum library version, and return ($CFLAGS, $LIBS)?
