I guess it is a common issue, I'm at home and do not have other systems for a
test.

I've built and installed libvpx version 1.8 on my system with following vpx.pc:
$ cat /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/vpx.pc
# pkg-config file from libvpx v1.8.0-191-g503cb8e
prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
Name: vpx
Description: WebM Project VPx codec implementation
Version: 1.8.0
Requires:
Conflicts:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lvpx -lm
Libs.private: -lm -lpthread
Cflags: -I${includedir}
I did the following experiments to say it is an issue for the version check.
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ pkg-config --exists --print-errors vpx >=1.2
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ echo $?
0
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ pkg-config --exists --print-errors vpx >=2.3
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ echo $?
0
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ pkg-config --exists --print-errors vpx
--atleast-version=1.2
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ echo $?
0
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ pkg-config --exists --print-errors vpx
--atleast-version=2.3
Requested 'vpx >= 2.3' but version of vpx is 1.8.0
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ echo $?
1
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ pkg-config --exists --print-errors vpx >= 1.2
Package 1.2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `1.2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package '1.2' found
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ echo $?
1
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ pkg-config --exists --print-errors vpx >= 2.3
Package 2.3 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `2.3.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package '2.3' found
yguo18@yguo18-skl-u1604:/tmp$ echo $?
1
