Sergei, thanks for the permissions hint. Though that wasn't the problem, since "make" itself creates the file, but I did discover that that the real error is: "gtk-update-icon-cache: The generated cache was invalid." which is given the first time "make" is executed. Thereafter its always... the "file exists". So now the question is, why is gtk-update-icon-cache generating an "invalid cache" error, during a fresh "make" and how to fix it? Anyone have any ideas or experience with this? regards, dj Sergei Steshenko <sergstesh@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > From: henman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <henman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Subject: gtk+-2.12.10 build error > > ............... > > GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE=../gdk-pixbuf/gdk-pixbuf.loaders > > ./gtk-update-icon-cache --force --ignore-theme-index \ > > --source builtin_icons stock-icons > > > gtkbuiltincache.h.tmp && \ > > mv gtkbuiltincache.h.tmp gtkbuiltincache.h > > gtk-update-icon-cache: Failed to open file _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
