Do you know if it is supposed to work with the Mate desktop or just Gnome?
I don't know but with the dependencies installed and the fix of commenting out line 374, it starts on MATE.
A couple of concerns:
the last commit to gdevilspie source was in Jun 12, 2010
devilspie is no longer maintained; development moved to devilsipe2 but that project is now looking for a new maintainer: http://www.nongnu.org/devilspie2/
devilspie2 is in epel (and Fedora). devilspie and gdevilspie packages come from nux.
