to Users I have been trying to install the spellcheck plugin, and I am finding it quite hard. I have got to the point of downloading the github zip file at: https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins and running autogen.sh. This fails saying I have version 1.27 but I have version 1.35. Here are the printouts: (I am running xenialpup (xenial64_7-5-5 puppylinux))

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GEANY_CFLAGS and GEANY_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Should I report this as a bug?

As you have your Geany in /usr/local/bin, I would wager that you have leftover files from a previous installation, e.g. /usr/lib/pkgconfig/geany.pc, and that the check finds this one. You should try removing all possible leftovers of a previous installation, and set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig, e.g.
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" ./autogen.sh

The problem is pkg-config can't find geany.pc. How did you install Geany? What is the output of `pkg-config geany`? If its nothing, then you need to find where the install put the package config file (geany.pc) since it isn't in the default places pkg-config searches on your system. Then you need to follow the advice the error message gave and set the environment variable or specify --prefix and --with-geany-libdir.
