Re: cannot find libmutter while building gnome-shell module

[Tim Cuthbertson <tim gfxmonk net>]

Thanks for the tips, Robert and Jasper. I have tried both of these to
no avail. But I had a closer look at the mutter repository, and it
looks like I had pointed `master` to my github branch - not the
official. So it just didn't have the latest code for mutter. I've
fixed that, and it seems to be getting further now.
