If you're compiling yourself you will really want to use 1.11.0, it
has a few fixes for xls export that are quite important.

It's likely a path problem.  By default configure puts things in
/usr/local but the package is probably installed as /usr which gets
checked first.

setting the environment variable
    PKG_CONFIG_PATH = /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
will solve your problem
