19980917 compiling

[Andreas Jellinghaus <aj dungeon inka de>]

i'm working on "rebuild everything from gnome cvs tree every night".
i'm useing tar.gz and diff.gz files provided by ftp.jimpick.com.
(thanks jim !)

here is my summary. i'm not sure if i should file bug reports or something
like that. (debian has this nice bug system where you can send emails. 
but i don't like web pages and clicking like i would have to do with gnome
...).

ok so far :
glib gtk+ imlib gnome-libs ORBit gnome-common gnome-chess gnome-filer
gnome-http gnome-media gnome-utils gnome-xml achtung atech balsa ee form-maker

failed: gnome-admin - oops, my messages file is in a different place
configure: error: Cannot find messages log file, you should specify one in --with-messages=<filename>.
why can't it simply compile, and let me specify the path during runtime ?
setting values before compiling is evil !
(look at the isdn4linux stuff for a good example why).

failed: gnome-devel : oops what is this package ?
isn't this the same like the build/ subdir ?
anyway, skip it : i'm useing my own script (availble on demand).

should call `gnome-config --libs` and ad that to ldflags (as usual).
