libenchant-2.so.2.2.15 or similar is just the shared library that can be used to execute balsa but insufficient to compile. enchant.pc is typically a part of a 'dev' package containing configuration, header files, and sometimes some configuration. The dev package is called libenchant-2-dev on Ubuntu.
