software developed on Fedora then starts relying on those .pc files being
present and does not work on any other distribution. Those added .pc files
are useless for portable software.
I don't see that it's any more useless than having to hack up Makefiles in some other way to do the equivalent, but if that's the policy, I'll remove them.
