I had the same pronlem a few weeks ago. Search the mailing list for the
thread titled "Compiling pygame on Ubuntu 11.10 oneiric JPGE [sic!] not
found"

Here's my solution form the last post in the thread:

"For the record: here's a command line to compile pygame from a pristine
hg checkout that works on Linux systems, which use this new scheme to
install libraries:

ORIGLIBDIRS="/lib:/lib/`uname -i`-linux-gnu:/lib64:/X11R6/lib" \
    python setup.py build

"
