I wouldn't be so sure - sounds like you just initialised the directory
you cloned Banshee to as a git repository :)

My bad - I should have said:

git clone <url>
cd <repo>
git submodule update --init

You shouldn't need to get this one from source. The package should be
called gudev-sharp-3.0-cil-dev. If you've done a make install then
it'll have used the default prefix (/usr/local) so you might want to
make uninstall it.

The error is referring to line 950 of the Makefile in the build
directory, looks like it's just trying to compile the
GConfSchemaExtractor.cs file so I'd try compiling that on its own to
see what the error is.
