you could... depending on how much work you want to do.

try getting libgtk1.2-dev.  you'll probably need libglib1.2-dev as well...
I'd look at the dependencies for the precompiled chat program and get -dev
versions of all those libraries that it depends on.

If you _do_ have libgtk1.2-dev installed, I suggest you follow the
instructions in the error message.  if you use bash, you can do this with:

export GTK_CONFIG=`which gtk-config`
