Hmm, don't they plan to update that? But if it's only libgda that's
missing you will most likely succeed with the latest libgda tarball like
that:

apt-get build-dep libgda
(now in libgda directory)
./configure --prefix=/usr
make && sudo make install

and afterwards be able to build anjuta.

jhbuild can build a complete GNOME environment in your home directory
(or any other directory you specify) without any interfering at all with
your system installation. But for the case of just a missing libgda it's
overkill.

Don't forget to file a bug in launchpad to poke them to update their
stuff ;) Would be really sad if they ship 2.30.
