depends: Remove unused `lib/pkgconfig` in `qrencode` package
What changed, and why it matters
This is a minor cleanup change in Bitcoin Core's build system. It removes an unused 'pkgconfig' metadata directory left over after building the qrencode (QR code generation) dependency. There is no security issue here.
No security action required. This is a routine build cleanup change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The commit modifies depends/packages/qrencode.mk to add ‘lib/pkgconfig’ to the postprocess cleanup command for the qrencode package. This directory contains .pc (pkg-config) files that are not used by Bitcoin Core’s build. The change simply prevents these unused files from being installed into the depends output tree. It is a build hygiene/cleanup change with no functional or security impact.
