It seems like xenlight's .pc file is broken if it references a non-existent .pc file. Jano

Can you paste the config.log section beginning with 'checking for LIBXL'? On my Fedora 31 where I build with libxl it looks like this: configure:23591: checking for LIBXL configure:23598: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "xenlight >= 4.6.0" configure:23601: $? = 0 configure:23615: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "xenlight >= 4.6.0" configure:23618: $? = 0 configure:23666: result: yes configure:23718: checking libxlutil.h usability configure:23718: clang -c -g -ggdb3 conftest.c >&5 configure:23718: $? = 0 configure:23718: result: yes configure:23718: checking libxlutil.h presence configure:23718: clang -E conftest.c configure:23718: $? = 0 configure:23718: result: yes configure:23718: checking for libxlutil.h configure:23718: result: yes configure:23743: checking for xtl_createlogger_stdiostream in -lxentoollog configure:23768: clang -o conftest -g -ggdb3 conftest.c -lxentoollog -lutil -ltirpc -lpthread -ldl >&5 configure:23768: $? = 0 configure:23777: result: yes configure:23791: checking whether LIBXL_DOMAIN_TYPE_PVH is declared configure:23791: clang -c -g -ggdb3 conftest.c >&5 configure:23791: $? = 0 configure:23791: result: yes configure:23859: clang -o conftest -g -ggdb3 conftest.c -lutil -ltirpc -lpthread -ldl >&5 configure:23859: $? = 0 configure:23899: clang -o conftest -g -ggdb3 conftest.c -lutil -ltirpc -lpthread -ldl >&5 configure:23899: $? = 0 Jano
