Sounds reasonable to me. Do you know if the lib{32,64}ncurses*-dev packages need special treatment or if they can use the .pc files from their normal counterparts? I see that the .pc files set libdir=/usr/lib, but (fortunately) do not use -L${libdir} in Libs, so they might work for the lib{32,64}*-dev packages as well, but I'm not a pkg-config expert. If the lib{32,64}*-dev packages needed their own .pc files, where would those be installed?
