It's easy to get rid of the test for a framework-installation and have it
install .pc files. However, from a quick look in the upstream tickets and
code I don't think that these pkg-config files are actually correct. But
admittedly, I haven't tried it so if you did try this out locally and
verified that all the .pc files are correct with respect to linking within
the framework-install and flags and such, then yes we could consider
enabling it. But my understanding is that there will be more patching
required..
