Hi, "Rebecca J. Walter" <rjp@xxxxxxxxxxxx> writes: > Sven even made changes in autogen to make the tutorial simpler. this is not true. I tried to get some magic into acinclude.m4 to remove the need to have glib-1.3 and pkg-config installed to compile gimp-1.2 from CVS. However I haven't found a good solution so far. This means that pkg.m4 and glib-gettext.m4 are still needed and neither the file HACKING nor the tutorial mention this in enough detail. I'll probably give it another try and if I fail again, I'll update HACKING accordingly. A few points about the tutorial: - I'm missing the names of the authors and an email address for further questions, suggestions, etc. - There's a typo in explanation of .cvsrc: "The the maintainers ..." - You might want to add the -p flag to the diff commands. It adds the name of the changed function to the generated diff. IMO this helps a lot when reading diffs. However this is not really needed when compiling GIMP. Salut, Sven
