The problem is, as Tim already told you, that your package has not
specified build-dependencies in debian/control at all.

Because your package is using pkg-config, it is really easy to find out
the missing build-dependencies, pkg-config looks for the package files
in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/. If your package compiles successfuly in your
local scratchbox installation, you can determine the missing packages
for the autobuilder by calling the following commands in scratchbox:

dpkg -S /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gtk+-2.0.pc
dpkg -S /usr/lib/pkgconfig/hildon-1.pc
...

The package-names you get from dpkg have to be added to the line
Build-Depends in debian/control as comma-separated list.
(Build-Depends: libgtk2.0-dev, libhildon1-dev, ...)S


Regards,
Thomas
