publican in not a compiled program so a make file doesnt make much sense. the easiest way to get a working installation is to run the 
commands i posted before

after running the commands below you should have a running publican install. 

cd /path/to/svn/checkouts
svn co http://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/publican
cd publican/trunk/publican
perl Build.Pl
install missing dependecies (6 -ish ) via your favorite package manager. (synaptic package manager => search for perl and then select correct ones)
./Build
./Build test
sudo ./Build install
