Chamila,

Ubuntu 12.04 is over a year old now and has outdated versions of GTK 
and other GNOME-related libraries.  In theory you could build newer 
versions of GTK and other libraries using jhbuild, but that would be a 
long slow process and even then I think 12.04 will not have all the 
required system dependencies.

So if you want to build recent versions of Gnote or other GNOME 
programs, your life will be much easier if you use a newer Ubuntu.  On 
the site packages.ubuntu.com you can see which package versions are 
offered by each Ubuntu version.  For example, Ubuntu 13.04 (the last 
stable release) has GTK 3.6.4.  If you need even newer library 
versions, you could run the daily build of Ubuntu 13.10, which you can 
download at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/.  13.10 has 
GTK 3.8.2, for example.
