The compile error caused by the changes in the newest versions of gcc. See:

gcc in natty now passes --as-needed by default to the linker
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-November/031991.html

In that message is also a solution to the problem.

Gpass seems to be fixed now. See the changes: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stanray/gpass/trunk/revision/4
