And once you install them with apt-get, you can easily look up how are they called in your library list using the following command:

pkg-config --list-all | grep query

You replace "query" with "glib" for example, in the result you can find:

glib-2.0 GLib - C Utility Library

So when you compile your code and you want to link your library with pkg-config, you can use this command:

gcc -o example example.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib-2.0`

Simply type:

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev

glib is a dependency so it will be installed too. Also you might be interested in installing glade as i remember it installs a gtk reference too:

sudo apt-get install glade
