Description

While  packaging 0.12.1 for Debian I observed that the install target for the pkgconfig files and the cmake modules is set to ${CMAKE_INSTALL_DATAROOTDIR}, which is usually $PREFIX/share.

However, those files should be installed to ${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR} (e.g $PREFIX/lib/${multi-arch-tuple}/...), as this is the place where cmake and pkgconfig will look for them.

I have a patch ready, I will submit a PR later. The patch is available at:
