To download pkgconfig I added this to .../bootstrap/pkgconfig/Makefile:

MASTER_SITES = ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/pkgconfig/0.15/

I ran into the same problem. Removing the -march flag helped (I do not
have an athlon).

I also removed the ccache variables from gar.conf.mk as well since I
don't have ccache installed.

It is definitely worth looking through the various configuration files
since they seem to be a lot more customized than previous Garnome
releases.


Another thing I noticed:

I wasn't able to download ORBit2 until I removed the scp line from
.../gnome/category.mk

And I can't install xrender either, it complains about a missing header
file extutil.h. I don't have it on my system apart from my garnome 0.23
build directory and I can't figure out what supplied that. None of the
files I have downloaded so far have the file in it. Any ideas?
