<note>
<para>Your port doesn't need to depend on GNOME if it merely installs
<application>pkg-config</application> metadata files to
<filename><makevar>PREFIX</makevar>/libdata/pkgconfig</filename>.
As usual, your port should be prepared to clean up after itself
and remove that directory if it becomes empty.
Assuming that your port installs a file named
<filename>gtkmumble.pc</filename> to the said location, just add
the following lines to <filename>pkg-plist</filename>:</para>
<programlisting>libdata/pkgconfig/gtkmumble.pc
@unexec rmdir %B 2>/dev/null || true</programlisting>
<para>The latter line must appear immediately after the former one
so that <literal>%B</literal> expands correctly. Please refer
to &man.pkg.create.1; for a detailed description of the syntax
used in <filename>pkg-plist</filename>.</para>
