<p><a href="https://github.com/hg2581" class="user-mention">@hg2581</a> what does <code>pkg-config --modversion geany</code> tells you?  and if it says it doesn't find any packages like this, check whether you have a file named <em>geany.pc</em> somewhere, likely in <em>/usr/lib/pkgconfig</em> or <em>/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig</em>.  If you don't have this file anywhere on your system, then the development files for Geany aren't properly installed.</p>

<p>BTW, I could imagine your distro having something like <em>geany-devel</em>, <em>geany-libgeany-1.26-devel</em> or alike, in which case you should install it to get the appropriate development files.</p>
