Hi Yann!
indeed, you've forgotten to install some required libraries. LyX gnome
port requires three additional libraries: gtk--, gnome--, and libsigc++.
You can obtain these fine libraries from
gtk-- : http://gtkmm.sourceforge.net/ (take the latest one)
gnome--: http://gtkmm.sourceforge.net/ (take the latest one,1.1.12(beta))
libsigc++: http://libsigc.sourceforge.net/
Then run configure with the following options: --with-frontend=gnome
--without-included-libsigc --disable-sigctest . Enjoy the partly gnomefied
LyX!
Marko
