the documentation of ParseFlags is specific enough for this case in my opinion:

   "[...] Any other strings not associated with options are assumed to be the names of libraries and added to the $LIBS construction 
variable. [...]"

There is no need to be specific about whether "--cflags" or "--libs" should be used when calling "pkg_config". The listed 
options/flags are supported and that's it. Note, how ParseFlags also doesn't require you to call "pkg_config"...the provided flags 
can come from anywhere...


Best regards,
