Looks like you don't have Gtk installed. This is a bad sign. :-) Balsa and
the rest of Gnome is very alpha software, and you are going to have to do
a lot of reading docs and know something about automake/autoconf,
libraries, headers, gcc options and environment variables. If you aren't
interested in development you are probably better off just waiting a
while. Balsa is not useful for reading email yet.
(This is why there's no Debian package.)

You should probably read the directions on www.gnome.org. You will need
glib, gtk+, and gnome-libs, the three core gnome libraries.
