Re: Garnome fails to build ekiga

[Maximilian-Clemens Anderer <max anderer gmail com>]

Hi!

Ekiga still does not compile (I haven't changed anything so I get the
same error message). However, I excluded it from the garnome build
process using 'mv ekiga .ekiga'.

Everything else compiled great and I am typing this mail on
evolution :-)

It would be interesting why ekiga fails to compile (ekiga is the only
app that does not compile), but I don't really need it. I am very happy
with what I have now.

Garnome is amazing :^) !
