It looks like the file relies on a CMake variable that is not set:
https://github.com/unittest-cpp/unittest-cpp/blob/v2.0.0/UnitTest%2B%2B.pc.in#L9

I tried applying https://github.com/unittest-cpp/unittest-cpp/commit/bdef2bdd62598afc31e17b24349b47d3813eed57 but it did not help. I'd appreciate any help on the matter.

See https://bugs.gentoo.org/857654#c1. This check has been dropped in portage-3.0.35 because of false positives, usually relating to SONAME versioning not corresponding to ${PV}.

It may be restored at a later time in an opt-in fashion (either for users/developers to set in e.g. make.conf, or for ebuilds to enable when upstream is known to make errors (possibly could be by setting QA_PKGCONFIG_VERSION?)).

Apologies for the noise until now. It was an experiment and while some legitimate bugs were found, it was too noisy and that's unfair to developers.
