[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

[Daniel van Vugt]

In zesty at least it is still broken:

$ grep libdir /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libudev.pc
libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
Libs: -L${libdir} -ludev

$ find /usr /lib -name libudev.so
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so

^^^ Not in /usr
