Next you will want many -dev packages. If you needed the Python galago development files than you'd install: python-galago-dev - Galago presence library (Python interface) apt-get install python-galago-dev and similar for what ever you './configure' script spits out. So 'apt-cache search xyz |grep dev' would be a way to look for dev packages which have xyz in them.
