One last time. Keep list traffic on the list. Do *not* reply to me only.

Please post the entire error including some verbose GARNOME lines
stating which directories are left du to the error -- and thus telling

removing the entire post-install from the Makefile. That is the line
starting with "post-install:" and the lines below this.
