That'll happen if the gtk development stuff isn't installed when vim is
built.  (This is currently the case in Potato/Alpha -- I'd guess PPC is
similar.)

I worked around it by doing an "apt-get --compile source vim" and installing
the appropriate generated .deb.

Build-depends should eventually prevent this sort of thing from being a
problem.
