Re: can't compile gnome-libs 1.4

[Jean-Francois Ondedieu <jfonde fr inter net>]

Well, you can find some useful information in the README and INSTALL files
included in the tarballs. But most of it comes form my personal experience.
By the way, if you experience some difficulties with ESound (ESD) you may
check the configure file at line 9888.I had to change the test to make ESD
work (test ${disable_esdtest+SET} and add enable_esdtest=no if the test is
successful, if I can remember).
Now, if you find this so hard, try to install Docbook and Jade. i wish you
good luck !!!
And I agree with your wife :-))

So long
