Right, the autotools build didn't rely on pkg-config for libmagic, now we do, 
out of sheer short-term convenience rather than being a carefully considered 
decision.  Buildability on RHEL 8 is not a requirement at this point, but 
apparently upstream libmagic pkg-config file appeared in file >= 5.39 from 
2020, which is a bit on the new side for rpm to require.

Thanks for reporting, we'll consider this.
