Normally, I would suggest that you should export PKG_CONFIG_PATH so that it includes the directory where the .pc files from these packages are installed. The only directory pkgconfig knows about automatically is /usr/lib/pkgconfig. If these .pc files are already in /usr/lib/pkgconfig (which is normal, at least for me) then I've no idea. At a minimum, look for atk.pc, cairo.pc, glib-2.0.pc, gtk+-2.0.pc, pango.pc.
