Gamin depedency is no longer available on Fedora.

I cannot build code::blocks because gamin is missing and it is no longer part of the package repository on Fedora.

Code
checking for GAMIN... no
configure: error: Package requirements (gamin) were not met:

Package 'gamin', required by 'virtual:world', not found

Code
[main@fedora trunk]$ sudo yum install gamin-devel

The C::B usage of the obsolete gamin library is a known issue and already has a SF ticket for it:
