Re: Problems with gnome-core(newbie)

[Chris Rouch <chris rouch ubs com>]

I think configure is broken. It is calling 

gnome-config --modversion capplet

and expecting 'capplet-*' back. On my system (solaris 2.6) it returns
'gnome-libs-1.2.8'

For a quick and dirty fix, change 'xcapplet' to 'xgnome-libs' on line 5455 of
the configure script.
