patch

If I configure gstreamer 1.14.4 or 0.10.36 with --disable-silent-rules, silent
rules are disabled, except for the part that "builds" (copies) the pkg-config
.pc files; this part always displays e.g. "  CP     gstreamer-1.0.pc" instead
of the actual cp command like I wanted it to.

I've attached what I believe to be the correct fix for gstreamer, but it looks
like the problem affects the plugins as well and should be committed to each of
them. I did not check all of your repositories so I don't know where all the
fix is needed. I did see that gst-libav already includes this fix, and that
some others like gst-editing-services and gst-rtsp-server appear (based on
looking at the source code only) to have the opposite problem of always using
non-silent rules. It would be good to get the pkgconfig/Makefile.am files of
all of the repositories that use it to be consistent.
