There is no definitive solution to this right now. A bug report has 
been raised, I've done some diagnosis and established that the error 
resides in the 'make install' process not installing certain files in 
the right place. Stef and I talked about it on #anjuta last night, and 
he was waiting to talk to Naba about the problem.

In the meantime, anyone that can help us to track this down, please 
post here or update the bug report on SF, we need to get it fixed asap.

No CVS tarballs at present, although if there is sufficient demand I 
might be able to set up the SF project page to generate them on a 
nightly or weekly basis... this is usually no problem when the project 
CVS lives on the SF server, but since Anjuta's CVS repository is the 
GNOME server, this might be a bit tricky to set up.

You'll find GNOME GUI skills are easy to pick up :-)

The HACKING file in the distribution contains the beginnings of this... 
we need to expand it a lot more, though!
