Although you can just do apt-get install vips on Ubuntu, sometimes you need a development version. A fresh install of Ubuntu does not have a lot of development packages installed. A useful/safe thing to do is:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libtiff4-dev libxml2-dev libfftw3-dev  
 gettext libgtk2.0-dev python-dev liblcms1-dev liboil-dev 
 libmagickwand-dev libopenexr-dev

and for a full build from the SVN sources:

sudo apt-get install automake libtool swig gtk-doc-tools libglib2.0-dev

now you can build the vips:

(if its the svn first do ./bootstrap.sh)
./configure
make
sudo make install

Now you need to set up your environment or the things in /usr/local won't be found This can be added to the end of your .bashrc in your home area:

export VIPSHOME=/usr/local
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$VIPSHOME/lib
export PATH=$PATH:$VIPSHOME/bin
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:$VIPSHOME/lib/pkgconfig
export MANPATH=$MANPATH:$VIPSHOME/man
export PYTHONPATH=$VIPSHOME/lib/python2.5/site-packages

tested on ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04lts
