Is there a way to set linkerOpts either in gradle config or *.def file to be output of

pkg-config --libs <LIB>

?

It depends on how long you want the linkerOpts to persist for.
If you set it in the def file and every consumer of the cinterop klib will also use the linkerOpts . If you set it in gradle, it will only apply to the binary you build.

If you want to use pkg-config --libs <LIB> the only to do it is via gradle, using exec { ... } to run it and set linkerOpts . Similar to what I've done here https://github.com/Dominaezzz/kgl/blob/03c0c6639c98acec4f655b7212b8f2fddc373072/build.gradle.kts#L13 to set the version based on git.
