[Gimp-developer] Unable to build GIMP-2.99 on Debian Sid

[Elle Stone <ellestone ninedegreesbelow com>]

GIMP-2.99 builds just fine on Gentoo. But it won't build on a fresh 
install of Debian Sid. It also wouldn't build on Debian testing

The current error in building (having solved several previous "won't 
build" errors) seems to be with making the symbolic icons. I don't have 
a clue what to do next.

Here's the terminal output:

$ make -j4 > /dev/null
