Re: garnome install not working

[Deependra Shekhawat <openbysource yahoo co in>]

Dear,

I was just browsing the garnome mailing list for 2003 
threads.
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/garnome-list/2003-April/msg00006.htmlThere


I found the same problem arised.

Now they said of script to do the things for you if
you have downloaded .gz source file. Although they
prefer .bz2 to be downloaded but what can we do if we
haven't downloaded the bz2. 

I think the garnome guys should make a patch for this
thing or insted provide with a solution (shell script)
that can work for us.

Please help (opensource spreads more if people are
helped when they need help).

Regards.
