This is what I gathered from Alexandre's post but I got a msg saying that target did not exist :? bash-3.2#make maintainer-clean make: *** No rule to make target `maintainer-clean'. Stop. I have resolved the immediate problem by deleting everything in sight including the source and starting over again. When I can spare the computer next I will try 'make maintainer-clean' again, now it is all installed. I'd prefer to do this cleanly rather than having to resort to shotgun deletions. Thanks again. gg _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
