You only need to edit these if you want to customise the browser on
source level. If you're happy with the defaults and the run-time
configuration options, simply skip this step.

Well, INSTALL does not say anything about running a configure script,
does it? So don't. There is none. "Usually" (i.e. following that
tutorial page you read), that script would create a Makefile for you
based on your environment, but as you noticed, Vimprobable already comes
with one.

You need to install the development versions of the tools and libraries
required by the browser. The first error refers to pkg-config not being
found which you should be able to install through your packet manager.
Then, install the libraries as listed in INSTALL, but the versions
ending in -dev. Since you seem to have virtually no development libs at
all installed on your system so far, this should resolve to quite a
number. After than, try make again.
