these are virtual packages provided by other packages.
libgl-dev is provided (on my Debian lenny/sid) by any of the following: 
libgl1-mesa-dev, libgl1-mesa-swx11-dev, nvidia-glx-dev, 
nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx-dev, nvidia-glx-legacy-dev
liblu-dev is provided by libglu1-mesa-dev
chose the real package that fits you needs.

true. fortunately this is not a big problem as the dependency is optional.
nevertheless i will change it to "libtiff-dev" (meta-package depending 
on libtff3g-dev or libtiff4-dev)

please file a bug-report in ubuntu, that pkg-config for libavifile 
should not report dependencies on dts if the libavifile-0.7-dev packages 
does not depend on libdts.
something like:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=492040

in the meantime, please do as cyrille suggests and install libdts-dev
you don't need to re-run configure, just linking should be fine.

thanks for your patience.
