[Shotwell] Building shotwell from trunk

[David Velazquez]

Hey, I have exiv2, libexiv2-6, and libexiv2-dev already installed. Try as I
might I can't seem to get shotwell to complain about anything other than
gexiv2 which, according to the output, should have been compiled properly.

The only thing apt-get build-dep shotwell wants to install is libhal-dev
which is no longer needed when building from trunk. I have libgudev which
replaces it though.

Thanks for the tips.
