In some packages, .pc files are installed to %{l_prefix}/lib/pkgconfig. This can be 
considered correct if the package has a dependency to pkg-config. If not, then the 
dependency (both build and runtime) should be added, or the .pc files should be 
removed.

  openssl (implicitly installs openssl.pc)
  imagemagic (implicitly installs ImageMagick.pc)
  maybe more?

Lastly, a check should be added to rpmlint. Any installed .pc files are suspect, and 
if they are installed to %{l_prefix}/lib/pkgconfig with no dependency then an error is 
raised.
