Try installing the build-essential package from Synaptic.

[sirmoreno]

how?

[nixclusive]

try
sudo apt-get install build-essential

in the terminal window. (Right Click on the desktop and click open terminal.)

I already install sudo apt-get install build-essential
but the anjuta tells me to install new packages:
glib,automake,autoconf,libtool and i have no idea how.

[nixclusive]

simple:

sudo apt-get install glib automake autoconf libtool

The beauty of apt-get is that it automatically satisfies dependencies. :D

Watch out to install also the -dev packages for the libraries - like libglib2.0-dev, libglib1.2-dev etc. I had Anjuta telling about missing glib but it is actually one of these -dev i think. Now my anjuta seems to work fine. Simply use Synaptic to install the packages, its located in System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager :D.
