Is any pkg-config files generated when you type 'scons' or do you get only
output like this:

Checking for numpy-1... yes
Checking for scotch... yes
Checking for ufc-1... yes
...

In the latter case, you have probably already installed the pkg-config
files and updated the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable. Hence, no pkg-config files
are generated or installed.

Just manually remove the $prefix folder and try again.
