+## New pybind11 custom dependency
+
+`dependency('pybind11')` works with pkg-config and cmake without any special
+support, but did not handle the `pybind11-config` script.
+
+This is useful because the config-tool will work out of the box when pybind11
+is installed, but the pkg-config and cmake files are shoved into python's
+site-packages, which makes it impossible to use in an out of the box manner.
