Re: Gnome on FreeBSD??? No Luck!!!

[Devin Butterfield <dbutter ix netcom com>]

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to help me out!

Well...I followed your directions but it seems that imlib-1.9.4 does not
compile after commenting out the "#define USE_GMODULE". It dies with a
whole list of "undefined reference to"'s. Sorry I couldn't give you the
exact output, but I'm not at that computer right now. I tried many
different things and no luck...imlib will compile just fine as long as I
leave the #define USE_GMODULE in.

Could there be something else that I'm missing? Any ideas?

Thanks again!
