To build emacs pretests on my XUbuntu systems over the years, I run
`apt build-dep emacs` to install the dependencies, and then just
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/emacs-<version>. This is how I built
emacs-29.1 (on the same system) and emacs-29.1.90. In the past, I have
not had to specify any additional options to configure for emacs to
chose gtk. For 29.1.90, I had to explicit pass `--with-x-toolkit=gtk`
for this to work.
This is an excerpt from what M-x report-emacs-bug says on my 29.1 emacs:
-----
In GNU Emacs 29.1 (build 1, aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
3.24.37, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2023-08-08 built on jblin
Windowing system distributor 'The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.12101007
System Description: Ubuntu 23.04
Configured using:
'configure --prefix=/usr/local/emacs-29.1'
-----
Below, you can find the text as created by M-x report-emacs-bug for
the 21.9.90 build. I have subsequently rebuilt 29.1.90 with the
`--with-x-toolkit=gtk` option and now have the gtk+ version that I am
accustomed to (with readable fonts, etc.).
I don't know if this is intentional or a bug. If intentional, it
should be document in NEWS (which I checked and see hasn't been
written yet for 29.2). Anyway, I don't have a problem right now, but I
wanted to make sure this issue was known.
The rest of this message is what was generated with emacs 29.1.90
configured without any additional options.

Sorry for the noise -- I'm closing this.
I am not able to reproduce this anymore. I must have made some mistake
in my original build. Starting from scratch and just running
configure, I get a gtk build now. I must have done the original build without
all the dependency libraries installed or with some other damage to my
system. Between the first and second builds, I had rerun my ansible playbook
one time, and I also had done an apt-get dist-upgrade. No matter though --
clearly this was user error, so I apologize for the distraction.
