New description:

 This version contains a bug breaking all software using `pkg-config` to
 link against `libbrotlidec` (and the other brotli libraries).

 Upstream report is at https://github.com/google/brotli/issues/836 - the
 change has since been reverted as part of
 https://github.com/google/brotli/pull/838 , but no new version released
 yet.

 Can you backport the patch, please?

 This currently breaks other software like `libsoup` which tries to link
 against `libbrotlidec` by querying `pkgconfig`. Build log of that
 attached.

Comment (by Ionic):

 Affects all brotli C libraries, not just `-dec`. Clarify.
