 configure: error: Package requirements (libevent >= 2.0) were not met:

 No package 'libevent' found

 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
 installed software in a non-standard prefix.

 Alternatively, you may set the environment variables libevent_CFLAGS
 and libevent_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
 See the pkg-config man page for more details.
