What exactly was the "that" that worked?
See the message above: "I am currently working on another approach that is showing promise"
I started with a fairly clean virtual machine image (gcc, g++ and make were already installed) and loaded the software as listed. Then I got the latest files from git huh and went through autogen.sh, etc. By the way, by the time I am done that adds about 500 MBytes to my file system --- lightweight ???
I'm also interested in why it even tried to build debugger when the configure said "no".
Because I ran make in its subdirectory to determine if it was a minor problem that I could address.
It was not.
Can you run the Geany supplied by Ubuntu and post the line with GTK version from Menu->Help-Debug Messages
OK ... I started with another clean virtual machine image and used synaptic package manager to install
geany
geany-plugins

You are correct: GTK 3.22.30
You could try --enable-gtk3 on configure to build the GTK3 version from source if the installed version is gtk3 (as indicated by the debug messages).
I am not sure exactly what you mean. should the command be "./configure --enable-gtk3" ?
OK .. I started with another clean virtual machine image and copied the file geany-1.3.3.tar.gz to ~/Downloads. The folder geany-1.33 was extracted to the same directory. I opened a terminal window in that directory.
cd /home/lewis/Downloads/geany-1.33
./configure --enable-gtk3
no joy
So I tried
sudo apt-get install GTK3.0
./configure --enable-gtk3
Now the error message is:
configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-3.0 >= 3.0 glib-2.0 >= 2.32 gio-2.0 >= 2.32 gmodule-no-export-2.0) were not met:
No package 'gtk+-3.0' found
No package 'glib-2.0' found
No package 'gio-2.0' found
No package 'gmodule-no-export-2.0' found
One more time
sudo apt-get install glib2.0
sudo apt-get install gtk2.0
./configure --enable-gtk3
and the error is:
checking for gtk+-3.0 >= 3.0 glib-2.0 >= 2.32 gio-2.0 >= 2.32 gmodule-no-export-2.0... no
configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-3.0 >= 3.0 glib-2.0 >= 2.32 gio-2.0 >= 2.32 gmodule-no-export-2.0) were not met:

I am going to blow that image away and surender.
