And just to be clear, this is not Fedora-specific. You can also find
this in "man pkg-config", where the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
is described.

The new feature doesn't seem that helpful with arch dependent/independent
locations though.

Normal .pc files go into %{_libdir}/pkgconfig
Arch-independent .pc files go into %{_datadir}/pkgconfig

pkg-config standards for .pc file location?
I work on another open-source project that is considering using pkg-config, and we are trying to establish standards. I found the guidelines for how to package .pc files in Fedora (and EPEL), but I'm curious if there are Fedora or Red Hat standards for the location where the files are placed when the package is installed?
