pkg-config returns bad paths

Bug Description

The pkg-config values for this package seem invalid:

root@6eedf8391cfd:/kalibrate-rtl# pkg-config --libs librtlsdr
-L -lrtlsdr
root@6eedf8391cfd:/kalibrate-rtl# pkg-config --cflags librtlsdr
-I/

This seems to effectively break compilation which relies on pkg-config.

Tested on 19.04

A workaround (and a fix if this is packaged) is to replace /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/librtlsdr.pc with this:

prefix=/usr
libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: RTL-SDR Library
Description: C Utility Library
Version: 0.6.0
Cflags: -I${includedir}/
Libs: -L${libdir} -lrtlsdr
Libs.private: -lusb-1.0
