I see Alexandre already reported sucess and explained the hack he did.
I'll look into submiting a proper patch soonish.

Gut feelings only, but no. It is perfectly legit to be a provider of EGL
(or whatever other GL stuff) and not provide a .pc file with that.
However, I can see the benefit for consistency. But then, it puts some
burden on the packager which upstream do not provide a .pc file, to
write their own... :-/
