I was just using GNOME as an example.  The uninstalled-pc feature is a standard
pkg-config interface and is used by all sorts of modules which use pkg-config,
not just GNOME.

poppler-cairo.pc
poppler-cpp.pc
poppler-glib.pc
poppler-qt.pc
poppler-qt4.pc
poppler-splash.pc
poppler.pc

So, you are right, we probably should provide uninstalled.pc files for all of
them if poppler is going to support this feature.  I would have no problem
providing a patch with a full set of uninstalled pc files if that would be
accepted upstream.

I don't think it is really that much of a burden.  It just adds a few extra
files and a few lines to configure.ac to build them from the .in files.  There
really isn't a need for you to worry about maintaining them.  If people use
them, and there are any issues with using them, people will provide patches to
fix those problems.
