Hi,

I think that the problem is that your ${STAGEDIR}/${LOCALBASE} is not
populated with the usual mtree  (which includes the libdata/pkgconfig
directory)
You can try to remove the ".if defined(NO_MTREE) / .endif" around
@${MKDIR} ${STAGEDIR}${LOCALBASE}/${LDCONFIG_DIR} in bsd.port.mk,
although i'm not sure it's the right fix.

Cheers,

Antoine
