pcre.pc  is wrong for linux because it include in Libs -L${libdir} :

$cat /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libpcre.pc
# Package Information for pkg-config

prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=/usr
libdir=/usr/lib64
includedir=/usr/include

Name: libpcre
Description: PCRE - Perl compatible regular expressions C library
Version: 7.8
Libs: -L${libdir} -lpcre
Cflags: -I${includedir}

BUT, not every Linux distro as Fedora and RHEL include a local patch a
pkgconfig for this problem e.g. with the previous pcre.pc

$pkg-config --libs libpcre
-lpcre
