Re: Problem compiling gnome-libs-1.2.13.

[Raj Wurttemberg <raj starbase-01 com>]

Telsa,

You are a SAINT! :) Thank you very much!!! I added in 
the "--enable-prefer-db1" switch as you suggested and 
it fixed the problem. The gnome-libs-1.2.13 package 
now compiles perfectly. Thanks again!

As you requested I have submitted the issue to 
bugzilla.gnome.org. The bug number is: 53418.

Regards,
/*Raj Wurttemberg*/
