     I followed the install instructions from the tarball of pspp 0.8.1,
     and after  ./configure  I get:
     
     /////
     configure: WARNING: The following optional prerequisites are not installed.
     You may wish to install them to obtain additional functionality:
             libxml2
             libreadline (which may itself require libncurses or libtermcap)
     configure: error: The following required prerequisites are not installed.
     You must install them before PSPP can be built:
             cairo 1.5 or later and pango 1.22 or later (or use --without-cairo)
             gthread 2.0 (or use --without-gui)
             gtk+ 2.0 version 2.16 or later (or use --without-gui)
             gtksourceview 2.0 version 2.2 or later (or use --without-gui)
             glib-genmarshal (or use --without-gui)
             libgslcblas
             gsl 2.0 version 1.12 or later
     /////
     
     However, libxml2, libreadline6, libgthread3, libcairo2, libcairo5c,
     libgtksourceview2, libgtk2, libgtksourceview3, gsl-bin,  are installed
     for what it's worth, but apparently not recognized.
     
     I am runing Debian Sid current 64 bit, and I have psppire 0.7.9
     installed from Debian respositories.
     

You need to install their respective "development" packages.  In debian, I think
these all have a -dev suffix in their names.
