These look far too generic to me too. However, users of these files (other
packages that depend on this one?) would expect them to have these names and
would fail to build if they were renamed. It would definitely be best if this
naming was fixed upstream and only if that isn't possible consider a different
solution (perhaps putting the .pc files in a different directory and require
dependent packages to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to find them?).
