I've disabled vala with a patch.

AFAICS this isn't being built (and I have Python 2.7 and py-gtk on my
machine), so I don't think it matters. I might be wrong, however!

Good point.

I think you mean libindicator -- yes, it doesn't build without this.

There is a known problem with XFCE (which seems to grab all such keys even
if they're not used). Fortunately, you can manually bind keys in XFCE, and
the running instance of gromit-mpx can be controlled from the command line.

Updated tarballs attached.
