I extracted the tar to folder, right click open terminal here, type make and i get this
Code:
saved@saved-MM061:/usr/local/src/xfce4-taskbar-plugin-master$ make

Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
