So you have a working Python interpreter, but PKG_CHECK_MODULES fails to 
detect the Python libraries.

Do you have a `python2.pc' file?  This would typically be in 
`/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/' or a similar path.

If `python2.pc' is missing, my best guess would be that you don't have the 
development package installed (`python2.7-dev' or something similar).
