New comment by pullmoll on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/11495#issuecomment-491021621 Comment: This [template](https://gist.github.com/pullmoll/34c4dd237264191697cf501950aa4a79#file-libircclient-template) works for me. You need to replace `1.10` with `@version@` in `files/libircclient.pc` so that the sed can replace it with the current `$version` and you don't have to update that file for a new version. It seems you merged master to your branch without `--rebase` which is why now `common/libs` conflicts. Perhaps save your files, reset your branch and force push to this PR after adding the files back. Oh, I didn't try to build the static library. Do you really need it?
