 Since Ubuntu uses the Debian toolchain to build its packages, 
I recommend using dpkg-buildpackage instead of plain old configure 
and make.  It's in dpkg-dev.

So instead of ./configure, you type this:

dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
(without -rfakeroot you need to be root, which is best avoided)

It will tell you which dpkg packages are missing, which means 
you _will_ be told about the -dev packages, no guessing needed.
The end result is proper .deb packages.


Even better, if you get the source code from an apt repository, 
for example with apt-get source <package>, you can tell apt to 
resolve the dependencies for you, like so:

apt-get build-dep <package>
