just a brief update:

i was able to get elementary compiled hand-editing a libgnutls.la

then I've got an error while compiling e due to a missing libglib-2.0.la
file. as for gnutls there's no such file included in libglib-2.0-dev package
(ubuntu 12.04).

so I've extracted libglib-2.0.la from 11.10 libglib-2.0-dev, edit as needed
and try to recompile again without success tough.

at least this time the error was related to libxml2.la, the file
was present but not in the correct location, so after creating a
symlink (ln -s /usr/lib/libxml2.la /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml.a)

and finally I get e properly compiled :P

Andrea
