Gnome Commander does need several libraries to be compiled from the
sources. These libraries itself must exist in the development version
on your system.

But gnome commander is still a gtk2 application, so, instead of
installing the gtk3 libs, give it a try to install
"libgtk2.0-dev". You will furthermore need some other libraries (some
of them are optional):

libglib2.0-dev
libgnomeui-dev
libgnomevfs2-dev
libexiv2-dev (opt.)
libgnome2-dev
libpoppler-dev (opt.)
libpoppler-glib-dev (opt.)
libpython-dev (opt.)
python-dev (opt.)
python2.7-dev (opt.)
libpython2.7-dev (opt.)
libunique-dev (opt.)

This should be  enough to install Gnome Commander from sources on
Ubuntu Linux. :)

Best wishes
Uwe
