Description Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Currently dev-libs/botan installs a different package-config file for every minor release

dev-libs/botan-1.8.11 -> botan-1.8.pc
dev-libs/botan-1.10.1 -> botan-1.10.pc

Could you please make it install a generic pc file ( like botan.pc ) like libpng packages do?

Something like:

dosym botan-${PV}.pc /usr/$(get_libdir)/pkgconfig/botan.pc

After thinking about this, I think this makes no sense
