Great =)

Dependencies are auto-generated by the build system, according to the
libraries installed in it. I could force them, but this is bound to
break.

This is a glitch in Debian/Ubuntu dependency system - there's no way to
track API changes and usage, so required dependencies are increased
whenever a new API is added.

People on both teams are working on improving this, as this would make
compatibility among the distributions much saner to acomplish.

So, if you want to build packages for your ubuntu all you need to do is
this: grab the .dsc, .diff.gz and .tar.gz files, install
build-essential, devscripts, cdbs and run apt-get build-dep glade -- the
build-deps are very similar to glade2's.

And then run dpkg-source -x file.dsc, and inside the directory:
 debuild -us -uc

See you,
