I am attempting to build the Parrot SDK and when running the command it continuously fails due to multiple libav package variants not being found. Below is the error message.

As I understand it libav has been replaced by ffmpeg but the build should still be able to reference the packages as libav. I've tried adding different paths to PKG_CONFIG_PATH using `export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=...' but with no success. It is possible I'm not adding the correct path, I used 'dpkg -L ffmpeg' to locate the package. The output of that is:
user@TheMysteriousMachine:~$ dpkg -L ffmpeg

...of which I can assume the useful part is '/usr/bin' which i added to my PKG_CONFIG_PATH and still the same error when building. I am running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I'm at a loss and have been grinding at this for the past 2 days, any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you and I'm happy to provide more needed information. As a small request, I am pretty new to Linux so if you could include as many details in command line operations as possible it would help alot.
Assuming you followed FFmpeg Ubuntu compilation guidelines here:https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu
The path you looking for must be here: PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib/pkgconfig
