Anjuta 2.28.2 install on Ubuntu 9.10

I already installed (sucessfully) Anjuta 2.28.0.0 using Synaptic in Ubuntu 9.10. Next I wanted to upgrade to version 2.28.2. I downloaded the file anjuta-2.28.2.0.tar.gz from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/anjuta/2.28/ and followed the instructions in the readme included in the tar file. The instructions were as follows:
 1) Get the tarball
 2) copy it to your home dir.
 3) tar xfzv anjuta-<version>.tar.gz
 4) Change dir: # cd anjuta-<version>
 5) Type: # ./configure
 6) Type: # make
 7) Type: # make install
In the output from the ./configure I got the following error:

Using $(sysconfdir)/gconf/schemas as install directory for schema files
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for GLIB... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gobject-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gmodule-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gthread-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.16.0 unique-1.0 >= 1.0.0) were not met:

No package 'unique-1.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GLIB_CFLAGS
and GLIB_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

With some web research I determined that GLIB is referring to the development package for glib(???) and specifically libglib2.0-dev. I checked my library version with the following results:

$ sudo aptitude show libglib2.0-dev
[sudo] password for jim:
Package: libglib2.0-dev
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Version: 2.22.3-0ubuntu1

This information agrees with the information I got viewing Synaptic. For LibUnique I have:

$ sudo aptitude show libunique-1.0-0
Package: libunique-1.0-0
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Version: 1.1.2-1ubuntu1

I seems that I have the proper glib and unique libraries already installed. After all, my Anjuto version 2.28.0 runs (with exception of the bugs).

Where can I go from here?
