There's something i don't get. I wish I could go back to bora to answer my questions.. or at least see if it builds.
Ed_, did you have to install
gnome-keyring-1
and
libgnome-2.0
?

Or did you remove some support?
(I'm talking about v 0.9.0 but I hope your version has some of these 2 requirements)

Or am I missing some repositories..
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ chinook free non-free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ chinook free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras chinook free
deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras bora free
deb file:/home/lke/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_4.0 chinook explicit


I'd really like to understand rather than rebuilding stuffs

And yes, rotating is a MUST feature!!
The 0.9.0 changelog reference only once document rotation:
