checking for libgnomeui-2.0 >= 1.112.1 libgnomeprint-2.2 >= 2.2.0
libgnomeprintui-2.2 >= 2.2.1 libglade-2.0 >= 2.0.0 gal-2.0 >= 1.99.11...
Package gal-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gal-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gal-2.0' found

configure: error: Library requirements (libgnomeui-2.0 >= 1.112.1
libgnomeprint-2.2 >= 2.2.0 libgnomeprintui-2.2 >= 2.2.1 libglade-2.0 >= 2.0.0
gal-2.0 >= 1.99.11) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment
variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find
them.

gal deps in gtkhtml-3.2 are >= , should be = 

@ reporter : the deps in the gtkhtml version in your output are correct however.

removing some obsolete packs resolved this as well.
