 > Same problem here

 When installing a port, or when building something manually?

 > I suppose install script should move or symlink `pygobject-3.0.pc` to
 `${prefix}/lib/pkgconfig/`

 That will cause all of the subports of py-gobject3 to conflict with one
 another, which is why we do it the way we do it instead. Set
 `PKG_CONFIG_PATH` as Joshua showed. If this problem happened while
 building a port, the port should be changed to do that using
 `configure.pkg_config_path`; if you're building something manually, you
 should do it manually in your environment.
