Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2008-06-19 02:32:53 UTC
/usr/share/aclocal is owned by automake

Comment 2 petrosyan 2008-06-19 02:39:00 UTC
According to Fedora packaging guidelines "your package should own all of the
directories it creates except those owned by packages which your package depends
on".
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/DirectoryOwnershipImprovement

pkgconfig does not depend on automake and therefore it should own /usr/share/aclocal
