Title:
  invalid token @CARBON_LIBS@ in glib-2.0.pc

Status in “glib2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In libglib2.0-dev 2.41.0-1, glib-2.0.pc contains an unexpanded token
  in Libs.private:

  Name: GLib
  Description: C Utility Library
  Version: 2.41.0
  Requires.private: libpcre
  Libs: -L${libdir} -lglib-2.0 
  Libs.private: -pthread  -lpcre    @CARBON_LIBS@ 
  Cflags: -I${includedir}/glib-2.0 -I${libdir}/glib-2.0/include 

  This makes it impossible to statically link against glib2.0 in utopic,
  though it doesn't cause problems for dynamic linking.

  I ran into this problem while doing a test build of qemu.  I'm not
  entirely sure why Libs.private was used, given that qemu dynamically
  links against glib2.0, but it's definitely still a bug in glib2.0.
