Due to a recent upstream change in the Makefile, the SFML custom installed libs on RPI systems are not found by pkg-config and since pkg-config throws an error, the build fails due to missing include files and missing library names/paths.

To fix this, run the install steps for the sfml-pi library in order for the .pc files needed by pkg-config to be generated and then reference them during the attractmode build through the PKG_CONFIG_PATH env var.
