Not really.
The libtool package is only necessary when building from svn. The
'apt-get build-dep' command is usually used with release tarballs where
libtool is not required.
So, you trapped only into some special case :).

To verify, I just downloaded the new and still hot latest Ubuntu
release, started the live cd, ran 'apt-get build-dep geany' and then
built the Geany 0.16 release tarball and it succeeded. Everything
necessary was installed.

In case I'm wrong with anything, Debian/Ubuntu experts might correct
me, I'm none of both :).

Enrico
