building xfce4-panel from source

Hi, sorry if I sound like a newbie, because I am :)

I git-cloned the xfce4-panel repo, but when I run ./autogen.sh I get a message saying I should install the exo-1 package.

I thought it's something I can install from the package repositories (linux mint & ubuntu), but I tried to install exo-utils and libexo-0.3.0, which obviously didn't work.

Where do I get the exo-1 package?

Also, what's the preferred way to hack xfce? Should I do it in a virtual machine? What if I mess something up and my desktop becomes unusable?

OK, but still: how do I build it?

./autoget.sh says that it doesn't look like a package.

I renamed configure.in.in to configure.in and tried autogen again,
seemed to go fine.

I then tried make, and everything seemed to go fine, until I got:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/hasenj/code/xfce/exo/po'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `@LINGUAS@.gmo', needed by `all-yes'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/hasenj/code/xfce/exo/po'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/hasenj/code/xfce/exo'
make: *** [all] Error 2

sh autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
