Comment:

 I encountered this pkg-config problem while building vanilla
 sage-4.7.2.rc0 in a gentoo prefix on two different debian machines. On a
 x86 machine the build broke at the R spkg and on an amd64 machine at the
 matplotlib spkg. In both situations the failure was due to an
 incompatibility resulting from trying to include headers for libpng15, my
 system libpng headers, instead of headers for the sage-installed libpng12.
 Applying this patch allowed the correct headers to be located and sage to
 be built on both machines. I give this a positive review. The patch may
 need to be rebased.
