Sunil's comments about -odatavolume still hold, but let's answer
your original question.
The problem is not pkgconfig. As you can see,
/usr/bin/pkg-config is detected. The problem is libcom_err, which is
part of e2fsprogs. Because you are building the tools, you need the
e2fsprogs-devel package, which will provide /usr/lib/libcom_err.so and
/usr/lib/libcom_err.a. So, install e2fsprogs-devel and this part of
./configure will succeed.
