Since this message comes from configure, it is probably looking
for the development version of the dbus library here.
apt search dbus-1
reveals (among other things):
libdbus-1-dev/jammy 1.12.20-2ubuntu4 amd64
simple interprocess messaging system (development headers)
(this is on Ubuntu, so the version number is probably different, but the
package name should be the same as on Debian.)
So you invoke
apt install libdbus-1-dev
and try again. At which point you will probably discove another missing
library. Rinse and repeat.
Ideally the README should mention such dependencies, but since the exact
names of the packages depend on the distribution, it will often be vague
unless you happen to use the same distribution as the developer.
