I am trying to add mongo c driver library. The includes and libs can be
added by using:
pkg-config --cflags libmongoc-1.0
pkg-config --libs libmongoc-1.0

and I have found that mongoc_init it's a symbol defined in the library.

Oh, this is the step I didn't know. (Thank you)

For now it reports not found:

checking for mongoc_init in -lmongoc... no
I have selected the mongoc_init symbol by using this command:
> nm -g  /usr/local/lib/libmongoc-1.0.so

In config.log I found this variables related to my configuration:

MONGOC_DIR=''
MONGOC_INCLUDE=''
MONGOC_LIB=''
PBX_MONGOC='0'
