I'm not sure what to do. I don't have any arguments other than
directory ownership and "that's what the committee decided".
My comments (put in bugzilla and discussed on IRC last night)
Until such time as the filesystem package owns the %{_libdir}/pkgconfig
directory, this guideline will stand. If filesystem owns the directory and we
remove the fact that many packages could end up owning it, we can revisit this
issue and possible remove the necessity on pkgconfig for any file that drops a
.pc file. However the former needs to happen before we discuss the latter.
