Q: What ORBit version?

[David Eriksson <david natty rsn hk-r se>]

Hello everyone!

(If this is the wrong place to ask about problems like this, please direct me to
a more suitable forum!)

I would like to play a little with Bonobo objects, so I started building Oaf and
Bonobo from the following tarballs:

  oaf-0.5.1.tar.gz
  bonobo-0.18.tar.gz

Oaf compiles and installs nicely with the ORBit-(devel-)0.5.3-0_helix_1.i386.rpm
packages (with ORBIT_IDL_SERIAL set to 9), but Bonobo gives the following error
during compile: 

In file included from /usr/include/orb/dii.h:30,
                 from /usr/include/orb/orbit.h:61,
                 from ../bonobo/Bonobo.h:7,
                 from bonobo-generic-factory.c:19:
/usr/include/orb/interface_repository.h:6: warning: `ORBIT_IDL_SERIAL' redefined
../bonobo/Bonobo.h:6: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
In file included from ../bonobo/bonobo-generic-factory.h:16,
                 from bonobo-generic-factory.c:21:
../bonobo/bonobo-object.h:25: parse error before `POA_Bonobo_Unknown'
[more errors follows]

The ORBIT_IDL_SERIAL is 10 for Bonobo.

When I try to use the CVS head of ORBit (ORBIT_IDL_SERIAL set to 10) I cannot
compile Oaf... 

oaf-skels.c: In function `_ORBIT_skel_OAF_ObjectDirectory_activate':
oaf-skels.c:1065: `ORBit_ObjectKey' undeclared (first use in this function)
[more errors follows]

Any suggestions of what I'm doing wrong?
