Re: [g-a-devel] Unknown CORBA exception?

Hi Sam:

Try doing an "sudo apt-get build-dep accerciser" before building it.
You may also need to so an "sudo apt-get install gnome-common", but I'm
not sure.

Or,

You might just try "sudo apt-get install accerciser" - that will install
accerciser without you needing to build it.
