Yes, this is true -- and has been like this for quite a long time at least. FWIW, this are not circular dependencies. Some platform packages depend on desktop ones, so you just need to build them as deps. *sigh* Unless you really want to build *manually* from source, I'd recommend using a build tool that automatically resolves those dependencies for you and even cares about downloading the packages -- like GARNOME. :-) http://gnome.org/projects/garnome/ Hint: Since you already downloaded the tarballs (the smaller bz2 ones I hope), set GARCHIVEDIR in gar.conf.mk. ...guenther -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu\0.@ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}} _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
