Could you switch from pkg-config to find_library() ?
I was once in a situation where I could have used pkg-config with a
custom path to have pkg-config look for the .pc-file. I then switched to
find_library with the custom-path slightly adapted and it worked at
least as good as with pkg-config, if not better. For my case.
