build report

[Todd Graham Lewis <tlewis mindspring net>]

I build into /opt/gnome.  I nuked the old one and started a clean build.
Here's what I got:

0) While making ORBit, I got an error that ORBit/popt had no rule for
making libpopt.a.  It already existed in .libs, so I linked it up into
the popt/ directory and added a dummy rule in the Makefile just in case.
Probably configure brain damage?  I know that this report doesn't explain
why libpopt.a was not added as a rule in the Makefile, but that's because
I don't understand enough to say why.  If anyone is interested, then
let me know what digging I should do, and I will be happy to play along.

1) I had to add "-I/opt/gnome/include" to the Makefile for esound, even though
I ran "./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/gnome"

2) esound gets to the end of its make cycle and then dies with:

	/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link gcc  -g -O2  -o esd  esd.o clients.o \
		filter.o mix.o players.o proto.o samples.o    libesd.la -lm 

	gcc -g -O2 -o .libs/esd esd.o clients.o filter.o mix.o players.o \
		proto.o samples.o -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/opt/gnome/lib \
		.libs/libesd.so -lm -lm

	.libs/libesd.so: undefined reference to `afGetSampleFormat'

	.libs/libesd.so: undefined reference to `afReadFrames'

The README and the "Compiling" part of the FAQ make no mention of which
libraries are required, and, of course, configure et al. did not detect
that I was lacking whatever library these symbols come from.

3) When I try to run autogen.sh in gnome-media, I get the following:

	(...)

This after every other package and its brother, including gnumeric and
mc, compiles with no problem.

4) When I fire up mc and set the view to "Detailed", then the "Name"
column takes up most of the screen in the right-hand panel, and I can
not resize it down to a more reasonable width.

5) Dragging items to the desktop causes an immediate crash.  Here's the
trace:

That's all for now, probably more later.
