wxPython(SBo) won't build -- gtk dev files not found


Code:
configure:28947: error:
The development files for GTK+ were not found. For GTK+ 2, please
ensure that pkg-config is in the path and that gtk+-2.0.pc is
installed. For GTK+ 1.2 please check that gtk-config is in the path,
and that the version is 1.2.3 or above. Also check that the
libraries returned by 'pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs' or 'gtk-config
--libs' are in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent.
pkg-config is in the path and those libraries appear to all be in /usr/lib64 so I'd say the above checks out. What else could be the problem?

This is on -current by the way.

Well apparently I broke libxcb and had to reinstall it, now wxPython is building.
