pip install fuse-python: pkg-config unavailable, build terminated

I am trying to install python bindings for osx fuse with pip on osx 10.8.5. I am running python 2.7.2. I am running fuse 2.6.1. When I run the pip install command I get this error. I do not know how to debug it.

akh$ pip install fuse-python

I needed pck-config. Installing pck-config fixed the problem. These commands lead to a successful install.

brew install pkg-config
sudo pip install fuse-python
