Just for the record, pkg-config is pulled in through libglib2.0-dev dependency (though a direct Build-Depends would be more clear indeed). On the other hand: The package should definitely avoid to depend on working network environment, that is pretty broken and shouldn't be required. If it wants to download something from the net it should be possible to pre-fetch that and put that part into the Debian sources, too. Doing so will make the build much more relieable, especially when the remote pulled source changes - and here lies the problem: You don't ship the whole source for building the package; please do so, otherwise that might be seen as a violation of the DFSG as you can't guarantee that the remote site will always have the version the package was built with.
