gnomesword 0.7.9 doesn't seem to work with Gnome-2

Am I doing something wrong or is this not supported?

    It will work if you have the gnome 1.4 libs

    GS-2.0 ver 0.9.7 works with Gnome 2.x if you have a distro
    with all the required stuff, and add gtkhtml-3.0 and
    pspell-0.12.2 for spellchecking. The configure script needs
    editing: change pspell-compat-config to pspell-config where
    you find it, and also change -lpspell-compat and
    -laspell-compat to just -lpspell and -laspell
    run ./configure --enable-spell_check
    make
    make install (or for slackware 9.1 checkinstall -S)

    If you have redhat you'll need the dev packages for Gnome
    and what not. I had to compile and install gtkhtml-3.0 for
    my build to work. The readme and install docs that come
    with GS-2.0 are wrong in many places. Running configure
    will tell you as much. I wrote my own readme and install
    docs and will try to get those to the web site. I'm not a
    developer, so I don't know how much luck I will have. I did
    get GS-2.0 compiled and running after a few days of working
    on it. Since these were my first builds, it took me a while
    to get the wrinkles worked out.
