Here are the Debian and Ubuntu build dependencies:

libpam0g-dev libglib2.0-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev(>=0.76) libnm-glib-dev
network-manager-dev libpolkit-dev(>=0.8) libpolkit-grant-dev(>=0.8)
libpolkit-dbus-dev(>=0.8) policykit(>=0.8) libapt-pkg-dev autotools-dev
libtool libsqlite3-dev python python-dev python-central(>=0.5)
python-apt docbook-utils gtk-doc-tools xmlto xulrunner-1.9-dev
libgtk2.0-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev update-manager-core
python-software-properties libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
libarchive-dev libcppunit-dev libqt4-dev

Which distribution do you use?

There are Ubuntu packages available:

https://launchpad.net/~packagekit/+archive


Furthermore you did not pay attention to the configure options:
"--prefix= /root" is not the same as "--prefix=/root".

Cheers,

Sebastian
