Has ANYONE here actually been able to compile this thing?

On my freshly-installed-and-configured Scratchbox when I try to compile the tinymail app it fails every time with a "you need to install gnome-common" error even though gnome-common is already installed!
Following the build instructions straight out of the SVN docs for tinymail.
Maemo
-----

= Outside scratchbox =

cd /scratchbox/users/$USER/home/$USER/
svn co https://svn.tinymail.org/svn/tinymail

= Inside an ARMEL scratchbox =

cd tinymail/trunk
./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/tinymail-maemo --with-platform=maemo
make && make install

Now simply copy /opt/tinymail-maemo to the device
Has anyone gotten tinymail - and then modest - to build correctly or am I a complete ***** and doing something wrong?
