Certainly Rodrigo and German could answer this better but they are very 
busy :)

I think you need libcherokee and its own dependencies to build the 
personal web server.  The main dependency is GNU TLS which depends on 
gcrypt, etc.  Unfortunately, none of these are in Fedora nor do they 
appear to be proposed for Fedora (which is what I use).  It seems that 
they will be staying with libssl for awhile, despite the license 
problems.  So I haven't gotten this to build yet either because I'm 
reluctant to add a whole new and redundant dependency stack.

I'm surprised that the remote desktop tool didn't build.  It might 
require vnc or rdesktop.

There is also the transfer manager but it isn't getting built on my 
system either for some reason.  I get the following message from configure:

configure: configuring in gnome-transfer-manager
configure: WARNING: no configuration information is in 
gnome-transfer-manager

There is also a separate CVS module called libgnetwork but I haven't 
played with it yet.
