Re: [Evolution] Errors compiling gnome-vfs from CVS

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj helixcode com>]

You probably don't have GConf installed. Pull down module 'gconf' from
cvs and install that and see if that helps.

Also, I believe that GConf tells you to move a file to some location if
it's the first time you've installed - so make sure you do that.
