pkgconfig looks into /usr/lib/pkgconfig for its list of packages. However,
by default, ./configure creates makefiles that install into /usr/local

You can either specify a different prefix (/usr in this case) or
post-install make symlinks from /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/* to
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/ so that pkgconfig can find the newly installed
packages

OR

set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
