libjpeg.pc contains invalid value for libdir

[Aaron A Aardvark]

On ubuntu 19.10, the pkg-config file for libjpeg

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libjpeg.pc

contains the following line :-

libdir=/build/libjpeg-turbo-ff4xqQ/libjpeg-turbo-2.0.3/obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

This appears to be a relic of some build process; the directory does not exist on my machine.

I think this line should read

libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

This bug was fixed in the package libjpeg-turbo - 2.1.2-0ubuntu1

---------------
libjpeg-turbo (2.1.2-0ubuntu1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * New upstream version
  * debian/rules: set CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR and remove some copy hacks as a
    result which also fix the pkgconfig libdir value (lp: #1851940)
