`dependency` works just like it does with Boost. It tells which
subparts of Qt the program uses.
-## Pcap
+## Dependencies using config tools
-The pcap library does not ship with pkg-config at the time or writing
-but instead it has its own `pcap-config` util. Meson will use it
-automatically:
+CUPS, LLVM, PCAP, WxWidgets, libwmf, and GnuStep either do not provide
+pkg-config modules or additionally can be detected via a config tool
+(cups-config, llvm-config, etc). Meson has native support for these tools, and
+then can be found like other dependencies:
```meson
pcap_dep = dependency('pcap', version : '>=1.0')

+wmf_dep = dependency('wmf', method : 'config-tool')
