Hi Simon,

Do as it says: 

"Perhaps you should add the directory containing `fontconfig.pc'
 to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable"

Likely, you have to do something like:

$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PGK_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/share

Assuming you are installing in /usr/local as the previous log show.

PS: it is a bad practice to user 'root' as a regular user, as it seems
you are doing for building the applications.
