[Bug 1674201] Re: cross-compile-chroot.sh (to zesty) fails to build [cannot find -ludev] due to libudev.so being in a different directory to where libudev.pc searches for it

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Is there anything to fix in src:systemd? as far as I can see everything
is correct:

$ dpkg -L libudev-dev | grep -e '\.pc' -e '\.so'
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libudev.pc
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so

And yes the .so is symlink to a file in /lib location:

$ ls -latr /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Feb 15 15:10 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1.6.4

Which is all correct and the path mentioned in .pc matches the location
of the .so file.
