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

Thanks for the report.

Do you think it will be enough to simply remove the reference?

It should be enough for dynamic linking.

IIUC the dependencies in Requires.private only affect the pkg-config
output when static linking is requested:

libxenlight still depends on a blktap in the CentOS package, but it is a
different one that don't have a .pc file. It is easier to remove the
reference that to try to write a new .pc file :-).

There is xen-4.12.2-2 package that should be available in the testing
repo in a couple of hours.

Thanks,
