error while setting up chromium

i am getting following error while setting up chromium from source code.
when i run gn gen out/Default 

 gn gen out/Default
ERROR at //build/config/linux/pkg_config.gni:103:17: Script returned non-zero exit code.
    pkgresult = exec_script(pkg_config_script, args, "value")

  ^---------------------------------------
See //crypto/BUILD.gn:221:25: which caused the file to be included.
    public_configs += [ "//third_party/nss:system_nss_no_ssl_config" ].

I am not able to make out how to fix this.
i followed https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_build_instructions.md
also referred these
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/chromium-os-dev/360e3QsLH-8
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!msg/chromium-os-dev/nM7Af-sJP_I/YoqXPgZ0BQAJ
Not able to get much details.
These discussions refer to PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR but its not clear where to set this value or use it exactly.
Any inputs on what i may be missing ?

I had the same issue, and I also tried with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pkg-config as mentioned by @Rajan Palani and many other git issues comments. But in my case

sudo apt install libpango1.0-dev
sudo apt install libcogl-pango-dev
sudo apt install libjpeg-dev

above commands helps me out to solve the issue
