I'd much prefer to have no .pc directory in packaging directories.  I
realize its probably just personal preference, but it seems silly at best
to revision control a .pc directory.  At worst, it is actually problematic
to me, making it *much* more difficult to easily see the changes from one
revision of a package to another.

I personally think having a way to easily create the .pc directory from
the current (clean) state makes more sense.

See the debian/rules target of 'quilt-setup' for cloud-init that does
that.
