Following my past F-spot's post about the errors I ran into while building from source. I want to share how Google helped me to find the solution for the last error message I mentioned.
jj@freya:: f-spot [~]
Starting new FSpot server

The error mentioned the GL DLL is missing, issue that is solved following the directions given in this mailing list message.
jj@freya:: locate f-spot.exe.config [~]

/home/jj/programas/f-spot-0.3.2/src/f-spot.exe.config

jj@freya:: view /usr/local/lib/f-spot/f-spot.exe.config [~]
jj@freya:: sudo vim $_
Then adding the line:
<configuration>

<dllmap dll="libgobject-2.0-0.dll" target="libgobject-2.0.so.0"/>

</configuration>
After that, in order to complete my F-spot migration from my old Gentoo instalation to my new built one, I had to do the following:
$ cd ~/.gnome2/f-spot/
$ cp $OLDDIR/photos.db photos.old.db
$ sqlite photos.old.db
sqlite> .mode insert
sqlite> .output photos.sql
sqlite> select * from photos;
sqlite> .q
$ vim photos.sql
vim> %s/mnt.old.path/new\/path/g
vim> %s/table/photos/g
vim> :wq
$ sqlite photos.old.db
sqlite> delete from photos;
sqlite> .read photos.sql
sqlite> .q
$ sqlite photos.old.db .dump|sqlite3 photos.db
