That was my initial thought as well (going backwards). Then again,
as-is the .pc file is located in a arch _in_ dependant location, which
causes file conflicts as you have multilib - x86-86 & x86 installed
for example. In such cases the files have different contents (path)
which leads to link time issues.

Thanks
