Re: problems building latest using tla

[Alexander Saers <alex saers com>]

i have experience kind of the same problem. 

I hade an old version of garnome installed in /usr/local/gnome-2.4 and
tried to compile gnome 2.6 into a new dir and then first test it and
then switch symlinks, /etc/profile variabels so that the whole system is
using the new version. It seams that my current /etc/profile export
variabels broke the build. So i hade to repoint them to the new dir
start a terminal window, point the exports back to 2-4 to allow other
people to run the old stuff when compiling and then it works. That
limits me to just compile in the started terminal

This makes the installation much much harder than for example konstruct
where you just have to specify it in the conf file and everything works
