See if gstreamer installed something like a gstreamer.pc file or if one
came in the source. If it did, then you could try copying it over to
$PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig/
which in my case (RH 7.3) is /usr/lib/pkgconfig
failing that you can usually pass the paths to the libs of needed
components via ./configure, ./configure --help should reveal all.
