Re: [Epiphany] build failure on rh9 w/ XD2

[Rémi Cohen-Scali <Remi Cohen-Scali com>]

Either rebuild libgail to get the .la file or (if you already have 
libgail - it seems to be the case) create it by hand by 
copying/modifying one
It should be something like:

===cut here===
# libgailutil.la - a libtool library file
# Generated by ltmain.sh - GNU libtool 1.4 (1.920 2001/04/24 23:26:18)
#
# Please DO NOT delete this file!
# It is necessary for linking the library.

# The name that we can dlopen(3).
dlname='libgailutil.so.17'

# Names of this library.
