Pkg_config can't find file I have, changing path didn't work

I'm installing a theme on my Ubuntu and when I run:
$ sudo ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
I get the error:
No package 'gdk-pixbuf-2.0' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
I have the gdk-pixbuf-2.0 folder in usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
so I did the command:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
and tried installing it again. It still couldn't find the gdk-pixbuf-2.0. Any idea on how I can change the path to find the folder? Also, this last part might be irrelevant but how would I then remove that path after I set it without damaging the default paths?

Make sure you have the libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev
package installed; -dev
packages are the ones that ship, among other things, pkg-config support files.
I don't think you'll need to change PKG_CONFIG_PATH
once you have the right dependency installed.
