Okay, I'm making progress, I guess the actual required package was
called gconf2-dev.  Now it passes this check, but gets stuck one line
later on libxml2.. which is of course installed, but I guess it may
require libxml-dev...... Another 3MB download including its dependent
packages..  It seems i'm adding a whole lot of crap to my installation
today that I will probably not need anymore after compiling this..

Yup.. that passed now... Next one: Libgtk+2.0..  Downloading the .dev,
another 6MB.... 

Anyway I will continue installing stuff to just see if I can make it
work, even if I end up reformatting the whole drive to be able to  start
fresh again without all that extra baggage.
