Subject: [PATCH] build: Use datarootdir in Meson-generated pkg-config files

||
With datadir outside of prefix (currently unsupported by Meson[1]
|
||
but a frequent occurrence in Nixpkgs), the `datadir` entry,
|
||
in the `polkit-gobject-1` pkg-config file will be an absolute path.
|
||
This will prevent changing the base directory of `policydir`
|
||
with `--define-variable=prefix=…`, which many projects use
|
||
to install policy files to their own prefix.
|
||
|
||
Previously, this worked without changes on Nixpkgs’s part because
|
||
the pkg-config template used by Autotools contained `@datarootdir@`,
|
||
which resolves to `$(prefix)/share`[2], taking no heed of the changed datadir.
|
||
|
||
Similar issue can happen when a distribution package redefines datadir
|
||
like Debian does/did.[3]
|
||
|
||
This patch changes Meson-based build system to use `$(prefix)/share`
|
||
in the generated pkg-config files, mirroring Autotools.
