I have libglade0-dev installed.

Per Debian policy, the prefix is always /usr.

configure looks for libglade using gnome-config.  Using strace, I see
gnome-config looks for /usr/lib/libgladeConf.sh which is not there.
There are lots of other /usr/lib/fooConf.sh files there from other
Gnome libraries, but there is no libgladeConf.sh installed anywhere.

I've filed a bug against the Debian libglade0-dev 0.17-2 package.
