$ grep pkg-config scripts/Makefile
COMPL_DIR := $(shell pkg-config --variable=completionsdir bash-completion)

$ dpkg -L bash-completion | grep pkgconfig
/usr/share/pkgconfig
/usr/share/pkgconfig/bash-completion.pc

I don't see why.  We're just providing bash-completion files to aid
someone that is using bash-completion.  If anything, the relationship
would be an Enhances.

Note that bash already Recommends bash-completion.
