  FWIW, this still results in inproper pc files, from what I heard recently. The `prefix` variable can be overriden from outside when calling `pkg-config` (cmp. `pkg-config --help`) to allow for relocatable installations. Same like CMake Config files also allow relocation by having the install prefix not hardcoded into directory var values.
  
  So ideally any other paths expressions in the pc file use at least the prefix variable.
  
  No more info here myself.
