What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a terminal in the extracted folder and type "make".

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: it makes the pidgin-guiops.so file.
Instead:
[CC] pidgin-guiops.o

You don't have any of the pidgin-development packages installed. (pidgin-dev, 
pidgin-data, libpurple0, libpurple-dev, and probably others).

craigwharding is correct. I usually install Pidgin from source. First I execute:

sudo apt-get build-dep pidgin

This gets me all the dependencies to compile Pidgin. Then I download the source 
code from the pidgin website and run: ./configure;make;sudo make install

After doing this, the GUIOps plugin compiles just fine.

Maybe adding install instructions would be helpful

http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Scripting_and_Plugins is helpful, but not 
linked from the right places (e.g. the places you might get to if you google 
"Pidgin Plugins"), including here.

I added more install instructions: installing pidgin-dev and libpurple-dev is 
necessary to compile this plugin.
