rm $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_datadir}/pkgconfig/%{name}.pc

is this unneeded? or you just don't know where to put it in openSUSE? %{_libdir}/pkgconfig/%{name}.pc will be the place.

On Fedora, the .pc files are in %{_libdir}/pkgconfig/%{name}.pc for architecture dependent packages and in %{_datadir}/pkgconfig/%{name}.pc for .noarch packages. ibus-typing-booster is .noarch, so it is in %{_datadir}/pkgconfig/%{name}.pc.

But you are right that this file is most likely unneeded, it was already there when I started maintaining ibus-typing-booster. I always had doubts about the usefulness of this file but never removed it. Probably I should remove it now. Nobody builds anything against ibus-typing-booster, so what use could this file possibly have? I guess none at all.

on openSUSE, noarch packages' .pc files went to /usr/lib/pkgconfig. but I think nobody use that, too.
