If so this release is limited to only building on 10.3 and 11.0 > hmm.. i cant remember, why i put that into it. but cheese 0.2.4 needs 2.12.0 as i can see here. anyway you could try to modify the build files for a glib version lower than that and see if cheese crashes. the new symbols introduced in glib 2.12.0 are listed here http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/2.12/ix08.html, but at first glance i cant see any function, which we used. so go ahead and try it on your system. > For 0.3.0 I am getting failures if gstreamer is lower than 0.10.15.

As it stands Cheese is being looked at for > inclusin in the upcoming release of openSUSE (11.0). yeah, even the ubuntu guys have some problems, as they dont want to include gstreamer 0.10.15 in their stable version. unfortunately there is no way out of here... daniel > > Many thanks, > > Andy > > -- > Andrew Wafaa > Tel: +44 (0)7974 074546 > Blog: http://www.wafaa.eu > -- this mail was sent using 100% recycled electrons ================================================ daniel g. siegel <dgsiegel gmail com> http://home.cs.tum.edu/~siegel gnupg key id: 0x6EEC9E62 fingerprint: DE5B 1F64 9034 1FB6 E120 DE10 268D AFD5 6EEC 9E62 encrypted email preferred
