configure fails due to lockdev #11

Description

When I run ./autogen.sh I get the following on OpenSUSE 15.6. Note that lockdev is installed in my case, but it also causes me no end of trouble due to trying to write lock files to the deprecated /var/run/lock directory, which is no longer writable by all. Since the configure file itself is broken, adding --disable-lockdev does not fix the issue.

checking for the common suffixes of directories in the library search path... lib,lib,lib64
checking for iconv... yes
checking for working iconv... yes
./configure: line 8045: PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG: command not found
./configure: line 8058: syntax error near unexpected token LOCKDEV,' ./configure: line 8058: PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LOCKDEV, lockdev,'

Removing lockdev from configure.ac fixes the issue.
