This is weird, works for me (tm). Maybe a shell problem? I've
tested the script with bash only...

This is pkg-config not finding libgeda.pc. By default, when you do 'make
config' libgeda will be installed in $(HOME)/geda and you need to tell
pkg-config to look there:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:$(HOME)/geda/lib/pkgconfig

Or, you could do 'make config prefix=/usr' to install everything under
/usr.
