Re: CVS GTK Compile Problem

[Marcus Brubaker <spoon elpaso net>]

Well, the glib.m4 seems to be the problem, but not because it was located
in /usr/share/aclocal, but because an outdated version was in
/usr/local/share/aclocal.  I've removed this file, exported the
ACLOCAL_FLAGS env var and recompiled both glib and gtk and still to no
luck.  Any other suggestions?  I checked the file /usr/local/share/glib.m4
after I recompiled/installed glib and the header to it reads like this:

# Configure paths for GLIB
# Owen Taylor     97-11-3

and then later on:

  min_glib_version=ifelse([$1], ,0.99.7,$1)

So I assume this to still be the older version.  When I checked glib.m4 in
my glib directory, it had the same lines.  Perhaps someone forgot to
update that file in the CVS?
