Dear BLFS folks,

The instructions for Qt 5.8.0 [1] contain the part below.

Remove references to the build directory from the installed .pc files by 
running the following command as the root user:
>
> ```
find $QT5PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig -name "*.pc" -exec perl -pi -e "s, 
-L$PWD/?\S+,,g" {} \;
> ```

Looking through all the pkg-config files, only `/usr/local/qt5/lib/pkgconfig/Qt5WebEngineCore.pc` contains a reference the build path.

Despite being correct, I suggest to update the instructions to only touch that one file.

I created issue 59342 [2] in the upstream bug tracker, so hopefully this will also be fixed soon.


Kind regards,

Paul
