vcpkg is now difficult to use.

The latest vcpkg for tomlplusplus now requires pkgconfig, which is a seperate install on windows. Previously I could just add tomlplusplus to my CMakelists.txt. I tried adding the extra PkgConfig stuff, and tried to install the extra findpackage binaries on windows, but gave up. I've just copied tomlplusplus into my tree.

Ah that sucks. I don't know much about vcpkg but I'll look into at some point. Thanks for letting me know :)

Installing pkgconfig using choco worked for me:

choco install pkgconfiglite

You could also use the vcpkg port for toml++ 3.1.0 which doesn't require PkgConfig.

Is there any way of reverting the offending change? Taking a dependency on PkgConfig for a straight-forward library (it's usable as header-only) seems like massive overkill.

+1 to this. The PkgConfig dependency on vcpkg seriously detracts from the allure of a header only library.
