Okay, I made a guess that the libgdome2-dev package should be added to
the build dependencies.  So I did “apt-get install libgdome2-dev” and
then re-ran “./configure”.  Now it fails with these messages at the
end:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
checking for gdome-config... /usr/bin/gdome-config
/usr/bin/gdome-config: line 86: --libs: command not found
/usr/bin/gdome-config: line 87: --cflags: command not found
/usr/bin/gdome-config: line 86: --libs: command not found
/usr/bin/gdome-config: line 87: --cflags: command not found
checking for GSTREAMER... no
no
configure: error:
GStreamer development headers not found.
Use --disable-gstreamer if you do not need GStreamer (sound) support.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The strange error messages from gdome-config seem to be irrelevant, as
these are on stderr and the stdout appears to be correct.

So it looks like another missing dependency on some gstreamer-related
package.  I'll work on figuring this out tomorrow.  If someone wants
to tell me in the meantime, that would be great ...
