In commit "Use
GNUInstallDirsmodule" (54bd57f)I think this change is right, but it did seem to cause a problem with a depends build that fanquake is fixing in bitcoin/bitcoin#28846 commit bitcoin/bitcoin@156366f
On fedora, replacing
libwith${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR}here causes the pkgconfig file to be installed inlib64/instead oflib/, which seems right and makes sense according to explanations given https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/GNUInstallDirs.html and https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/blob/master/Modules/GNUInstallDirs.cmakeBut this is incompatible with the depends build that hardcodes the
lib/directory: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/d752349029ec7a76f1fd440db2ec2e458d0f3c99/depends/config.site.in#L91, so hardcoding lib again in bitcoin/bitcoin#28846 is needed after this change.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Right. The current Bitcoin Core depends build system will handle any other package built and installed with CMake in this flawed way. A generic fix for it looks quite reasonable.
Uh oh!

The depends system definitely has a bug because it will install the library in "lib64" on some platforms, but look for it in "lib" regardless of the platform. But the approach isn't really flawed, is it? It seems reasonable for the depends system to just always install the library in "lib" and always look for it there.

I'm fine with either approach. But in the light of the upcoming migration from Autotools to CMake, the forced installation to the
libsubdirectory looks useless.
