Hi,

Ubuntu 10.10 has libglib2.0-dev version 2.26.0, but
you need version >= 2.27.90 for building WebKitGTK+ .

Ubuntu 11.04 has 2.28 libglib2.0. Or you have to build
a newer version from source. Probably you have to install
newer libsoup too.

Check https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingGtk for details.

br,
Ossy
