[Arsen Arsenović]

* configure.ac: Call PKG_INSTALL_DIR to set pkgconfigdir.
* Makefile.am (pkgconfigdir): Remove.  Will be set via AC_SUBST.

Hi there,

This patch is in a similar vein to my earlier patch to Guile itself
posted at
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2023-03/msg00040.html

These came up while I was working on packaging Guile in Gentoo.

My current plan with this is to install the guile-lib pkg-config file
alongside its matching Guile versions, in order to support parallel
installation, seeing as otherwise two guile-lib builds against two
Guile versions collide in the pkg-config file they install.

Also, on a similar note, guile-lib installs to /usr/share/guile/site/
rather than /usr/share/guile/site/$EV (i.e. %global-site-dir instead of
%site-dir) like other packages do.  Why is that the case?  In this
instance, it's probably okay as guile-lib installs identical Scheme code
for different Guile effective versions, but I'm not sure that can be
said about the general case.

Should guile-lib use %site-dir?

Thanks in advance, have a lovely day.
