[Shotwell] Building shotwell from trunk

[Mattias Põldaru]

To build you need header files, which are in *-dev packages. Install
libexiv2-dev and see if this makes shotwell compile (or complain about
another dependency).
If you hit another dependency apt-get search exiv (or whatever it
complains about) and install corresponding package.

All dependencies for the version in repository can be installed with 
apt-get build-dep packagename
