From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> The creation of the PKG_CONFIG_FILE appends $(OUTPUT) to $(PKG_CONFIG_SOURCE_FILE) but this happens before the include of Makefile.include, that defines what $(OUTPUT) is. The end result is that the libtraceevent.pc file is not created in tho output directory that is specified.
