No, you are not misunderstanding. With pkg-config, configure has an 
easier time check the required CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for needed for 
libraries to link properly. Configure would just ask pkg-config for all 
the info needed, than pkg-config would turn around and look under 
$PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc and other user $PKG_CONFIG_PATH for the info.

Libdvdnav doesn't install any *.pc files, neither do I find any *.pc.in 
files in the dvdnav tarball.

I hope that clears it.
