@codebrainz: Oh no, I will not touch the build system :smile:
Also I do not assume that there is something wrong with the dependencies. The question from my side is if e.g. ```libwnck``` should be listed as a requirement on the plugin page. I did not need to install ```gthread``` or ```zlib```, I guess that they are very common and so should always be there. If there are distros/OSes on which they are also not commonly installed then they should maybe also be listed.
