Description François Bissey 2011-10-30 02:14:29 UTC 
The ebuild contains the following line to define the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable on prefix:

        if use prefix; then
                # Add an explicit reference to $EPREFIX to PKG_CONFIG_PATH to
                # simplify cross-prefix builds
                echo "PKG_CONFIG_PATH=${EPREFIX}/usr/$(libdir)/pkgconfig:${EPREFIX}/usr/share/pkgconfig" >> "${T}"/99${PN}
                doenvd "${T}"/99${PN}
        fi


It relies on the multilib eclass. Unfortunately usr/$(libdir) is incorrect, it should be usr/$(get_libdir). libdir is not defined anywhere and is not defined in the multilib eclass.

My friend Steve Trogdon filled a bug for this independently: #388809
One should be marked duplicate of the other.
