Description Andrea Bolognani 2018-09-17 08:55:45 UTC

pkgconfig files are needed when linking against libraries, and
are thus usually shipped in the corresponding -devel package.

Xen, however, ships its *.pc files in the -runtime package (which
the -devel package doesn't depend on), breaking user expectations.

Please consider moving them.

Comment 2 Michael Young 2018-09-18 23:09:57 UTC

I have moved the pkgconfig files to xen-devel for F29 and F30 as it does look like a better place for them. However I am inclined not to do this for F28 and F27 as it feels like too big a change for released versions.
