Re: [gnome-db] odd error when building libgda

[Mark Johnson <mrj001 shaw ca>]

Found the problem:
flex can't take the space between the -o and the file name.  When I 
removed the space (from Makefile.am), it ran correctly.  I notice that 
there is no space in the sql-transaction directory, so I expect this is 
a good solution.

I have attached a (trivial) patch to fix this.
