problems compiling gnome-terminal-2.2.0

[Rodd Clarkson <r-list clarkson id au>]

Filed the following bug on bugzilla, but hp (rightly) says that it is
not his problem.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104281

I'm hoping someone here can help because I've updated somewhat, but
every update has involved downloading the new tarball from
ftp.gnome.org, configuring using '.configure
--prefix=/home/rodd/garnome' and then a make && make install.

Trying to build gnome-terminal fails.

After successfully running "./configure --prefix=/home/rodd/garnome" I
get
the following error during make:

/usr/bin/ld: warning: libXft.so.2, needed by
/home/rodd/garnome/lib/libvte.so, may conflict with libXft.so.1
/home/rodd/garnome/lib/libXft.so.2: undefined reference to
`XRenderQuerySubpixelOrder'

feedback from HP

I promise you this is not a gnome-terminal issue, it is not happening
to anyone else. You linked some part of the library stack to Xft1 and
linked vte to Xft2, that won't work. You need to find what's linked to
Xft1 and rebuild it without linking to Xft1.
Nobody can debug it by guessing, you need to use "ldd" and other tools
to debug the system.
