Yes, this is a mistake.

  https://libvirt.org/platforms.html

 "For distributions with long-lifetime releases, the project will aim
  to support the most recent major version at all times. Support for
  the previous major version will be dropped 2 years after the new 
  major version is released. For the purposes of identifying supported
  software versions, the project will look at RHEL, Debian, Ubuntu LTS,
  and SLES distros. "

SLE 15 was released  July 2018, so we should be continuing to support
SLE 12 until July 2020.

So we need to fix this to allow fallback to the non-pkg-config detection
for yajl.

Regards,
Daniel
