Subject: Compiling the CVS Tree

I just downloaded the CVS tree.  I also downloaded and installed FreeType2
and intltools.  I ran into several snags trying to build Dia.

The software versions I have are:
      Linux      2.4.19
      GTK+       2.0.5
      GLIB       2.0.4
        FreeType   2.1.0
      gettext    0.11.1

(I noticed that libxslt is not found on my system, is that important for Dia?)

not essential, recently features have been added that use XSLT but it
should not prevent you from building Dia.

2) If I patch around the above problem, autogen.sh stops again, this time
with:

if you can provide a patch to make this pattern matching more robust i
expect it would be very much appreciated.

sorry i cannot be more helpful.  be patient and i am sure the developers
will do their best to help you out when they return from their holidays.

I started using Dia about 2 years ago on Windows.  I'm looking forward to
using in on my Linux system.  My main application is UML.

Glad you like Dia.
Suggestions and feedback welcome.  Patches, code, shapes,
documents, translations, bugfixes even more welcome.

Sincerely
