Dear Maintainer,

the pkg-config file libchipcard-client.pc is not usable as-is:

$ pkg-config libchipcard-client --cflags
Variable 'datadir' not defined in '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libchipcard-client.pc'

pkgdatadir is defined before datadir, but depends on the latter:

$ pkg-config --debug libchipcard-client --cflags
Error printing enabled by default due to use of output options besides --exists, --atleast/exact/max-version or --list-all. Value of --silence-errors: 0

Dear Maintainer,

this fixes it.

Hi Michael,

thank you for reporting the issue to the Debian bug tracker. Assuming
your consent to distributing your patch under the LGPL v2.1 license, I
dared to commit it to the upstream Git repository, which you can find here:

https://www.aquamaniac.de/rdm/projects/libchipcard/repository/revisions/61eb11ada0cb5f9b16a7cb519f4165a4876ba636/diff/libchipcard-client.pc.in

The file libchipcard-server.pc.in, which you also modified in your
patch, doesn't exist anymore.

Thank you to your contribution to Debian and Libchipcard.

Kind regards,
Micha
