+I agree that the current behaviour is probably wrong. I'm not sure if we\r
+need more control here as Tomi suggests. My biggest concern is that\r
+emacs.pc seems to be rather specific to fedora / redhat packaging, which\r
+makes it hard for me to evaluate both the current handling and this\r
+patch. Do any any Fedora users have opinions on just dropping the\r
+handling of "pkg-config emacs"? Or am I missing other places that\r
+pkg-config file is available?\r
