I'm trying to compile the Buoh comics reader from source on a machine 
with a pretty much stock Ubuntu 9 system. I downloaded and unarchived 
the source, read the install instructions and began with ./configure. I 
the following error messages:

No package 'glib-2.0' found
No package 'gtk+-2.0' found
No package 'libsoup-2.2' found
No package 'gconf-2.0' found

I opened up Synaptic and searched for glib-2, but didn't find it. The 
closest thing I find is libglib2-ruby, and some variants.

I searched for gtk+-2.0 and found a lot of things with gtk2 in them, but 
not gtk+-2.0.

I searched for libsoup-2.2 and found nothing.

I searched for gconf-2.0 and found a few things, but they didn't look 
like they were related.

I understand that the Buoh comics reader project was abandoned. I have 
it running, installed as a package, on my Ubuntu 8.4 machine. I'm 
working on upgrading to 10.10 and want to continue to use the comics 
reading tool. While I'm downloading the 10.10 iso image I thought I'd 
try this compile. I'd need to do it over again for 10.10, I assume.

Is this something that is going to be a major effort just to be able to 
assemble the tools needed to compile the old program, or is there 
another way to approach what I want to do?

TIA.
