I don't know pkgconfig much, but when in later packages in configure
tests presence with

$PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "somepackage >= version"

Missing libraries from Require.private leads to failure of configure.

sure that elementary or others won't build without that.

Maybe I misunderstand the problem though.
