So this package[1] would be correctly packaged ?

My questions are quite simple:
1. Can we use a '%define _libdir %{libexecdir}? This would make the packages always install on /usr/lib (or as an alternative, '%define _libdir %{prefix}/lib');
I don't understand. Why not use %{_libexecdir} directly?
I wanted to ask this question too. :-)
2. Why would we want to drop the .pc file on /usr/share? If we would use the macro above, shouldn't it also be sane to dump the .pc file on /usr/lib/pkgconfig ?
That's how pkg-config works: arch-independent .pc files go to /usr/share/pkgconfig. So it's right the current way.
+1
3. In the cases where we have a devel package only for the .pc file, could we merge it and have a 'Provides: %{name}-devel' ?
We could, yes. Not sure if it's better or not; possibly a matter of taste.
We should not, because installing SomeMonoApplication would install all it's development requirements which is not what you want. (It's probably OK if all mono devel packages contained only one .pc file, but I suppose that is not the case ...).
