Maybe you gonna add a bit more.

export
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/gtk/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"

Now the explaination. With the newer XFree version there are a bunch of
*.pc files stored in /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig as well such as xft.pc,
xcursor.pc, fontconfig.pc It may or may not be necessary to access these
too. Some other libraries such as PNG, SSL, ALSA and so on store *.pc
files in /usr/lib/pkgconfig and some other stuff depending on your
system may also be in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig. To make sure that
pkgconfig finds all these files (in case you need them) you should
extend your line with my extra paths.

Adding above export to /etc/profile is usually enough and is available
on next startup.
