With current git code built on RHEL 8 and freshly installed PCP (without the pcp-zeroconf package) I see dead sym links being present for probably all PMDAs even if they are not installed:
root@rhel-8-server:~# ls -l /var/lib/pcp/pmdas/mssql/Install
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 50 2020-11-20 11:59 /var/lib/pcp/pmdas/mssql/Install -> ../../../../../usr/libexec/pcp/pmdas/mssql/Install
root@rhel-8-server:~# rpm -qf /var/lib/pcp/pmdas/mssql/Install
file /var/lib/pcp/pmdas/mssql/Install is not owned by any package
I doublechecked that when reinstalling PCP the entire /var/lib/pcp directory was indeed removed so the sym link can't be a leftover from any previous installation. I now tested by installing only the pcp package, it pulls in some dependencies but I think these were created during post-scripts of the pcp package when starting the pmcd service.

I think it would be better if PMDA dirs and sym links would only appear when installing the corresponding PMDA RPM.
Thanks.
