Urks no.

Please tell us what kind of libsigc++-1.2 package you installed.  Your
answers are a bit ambiguous.

1) If, and only if, you installed a binary package from your distro
(such as .rpm or .deb) you'll need the corresponding libsigc++-dev (or
similar) package.

2) If you built libsigc++-1.2 yourself from a source tarball, you should
do either:

    a) Configure libsigc++-1.2 with the same prefix as pkg-config, i.e.
    ./configure --prefix=/usr.
or
    b) Set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.  For your system,
    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig"
    seems appropriate.  Best to add this to .profile or .bashrc or
    whatever.

It's better to go for option b) if you want to avoid interfering with
your distribution.
