I'm pretty new to the Linux world and I'm trying to compile a plugin for DeaDBeeF that's located in this git repo. The instructions say:

===== How to install =====
- git clone https://github.com/Serranya/deadbeef-mpris2-plugin.git
- cd deadbeef-mpris2-plugin
- autoreconf --install
- ./configure
- make install

So I did that. I got to the ./configure part, and everything works fine until it hits this error:

"checking for GLIB_DEPS... no
configure: error: glibc-2 is required for this package"

I have libc6 installed and it's up to date, so I don't know what its problem is. Any ideas?

You are probably missing the -dev version of glib. Try installing

libglib2.0-dev

and maybe

build-essential
