I get the following error on Ubuntu 17.10:

node-gyp configure build

Package xproto was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xproto.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'xproto', required by 'xau', not found
gyp: Call to 'pkg-config gtk+-3.0 --cflags-only-I | sed s/-I//g' returned exit status 0 while in binding.gyp. while trying to load binding.gyp

I have GTK:

$ pkg-config --modversion gtk+-3.0
3.22.25

My PKG_CONFIG_PATH was wrong:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/share/pkgconfig

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/share/pkgconfig

This solve too many different problens that i have, like not found gtk+3 on cmake of opencv! But thats it :)
