Feel free to try to build and test. You can see the actual error
during configure related to cryptui requiring gconf-2.0:

...
checking for LIBCRYPTUI... no
configure: error: Package requirements (cryptui-0.0) were not met:

Package gconf-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gconf-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'gconf-2.0', required by 'cryptui', not found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBCRYPTUI_CFLAGS
and LIBCRYPTUI_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


Best,
Janos
