Yeah, most things check for .pc files via pkgconfig.  However,
YDL does not set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable.  Since compiled
stuff usually goes to /usr/local/ you also need to set the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH to check that first:

put this line in /etc/profile

export
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig

You'll also want to set up your /etc/ld.so.conf file with
/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib

added to it.
