Hi Adam and Ignacio, installing the devel packages helped (a little bit). And I adjusted the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable as well. Now the configure script runs without errors. But make cancels with error:
"VALAC libgitg_libgitg_1_0_la_vala.stamp error: Package `ggit-1.0' not found in specified Vala API directories or GObject-Introspection GIR directories." Could not find out the cause of this. I could not even find a ggit-1.0 package. Do I have to adjust another environment variable for Vala? I also tried building gitg via jhbuild. After some hours I canceled, because the virtual hard drive of my build environment was full. Maybe 16GB was a little bit too less. I have a fresh installation of Debian 8.1 btw. Any suggestions?
